I am new to this forum so first things first hello!
I found this site when searching on google.
I have a Nissan Silvia S13 and when I go round corners, especially in the wet, my back end steps out normally ending up with me going sideways down the street or onto an island.
I have noticed in my fuse holder in the engine bay that there is a fuse missing from the Anti-Skid. Im not sure if the car actually has an anti-skid or not. Does anyone have any ideas here as to whether it should have one or not?
I don't think any of the S13 chassis cars had anti-skid without ABS, so unless you have ABS, there probably wasn't any anti-skid.
As a matter of fact, anti-skid could be another way to call ABS, as when you step on the brakes and lock them up, you're essentially skidding, and ABS will stop the skidding, ergo anti-skid.
Anyway, just don't drive like you are driving on dry roads when it's wet out and I don't think you'll have any problems. In this case, it's not the car that's the problem, it's the loose nut behind the wheel.

Lol very true... it was the tyres though i figured. I put the front tyres on the rear temporarily until i get new tyres for the rears. The lack of tread made it step out even on the dry roads until i changed them. so all sorted now.

You might want to check the alignment. It's possible you have some toe issues in the rear suspension. A little toe-out will make the rear end a bit happy especially in the wet.
