I can't chirp the tires going into 2nd gear...
Does that mean I suck? :icon17:
I used to be able to chirp the tires going from 1st to 2nd on my 350, but I can't do it with the 370. Am I the only one? I'm starting to think that maybe because I've been ignoring the normal break in guidelines, that the engine's performance might be suffering. That would suck. :shakes head: |
turn vdc off

I was next to a friend of mine at a traffic light, he was in like a 1990 Dodge Shadow with 200K on it. I figured I'd accelerate with some pep and not like granny for once, so I did. He blew my doors off accelerate wise cause the VDC kicked in and bogged me down to nothing. VDC- Is both a blessing and a curse
|
dont lift off your gas pedal when you shift and power shift into 2nd. see if your MT breaks.
|
Agreed, turn your traction control off, I chirp in 3rd pretty easily.
|
:wtf2:
|
Yeah i dont have a problem getting mine to break loose going into second and chirp in third! mine break loose if i smash the gas in second too.

Just do like that commercial on TV, qbout SRM or whatever. He had to make the shifting noise for his girl, you can make the chirp noise for yourself.

I haven't managed to chirp or squeel tires in any gear yet, even with VDC off. I think it's because I'm a chicken-****.

I did speak with Vinny! Getting the toys put in this Saturday. Damn these boards...if it wasn't for all these nicely modded Z's I would have been just as happy keeping the car stock! :icon17: |
VDC = OFF
Gas Pedal = To the Metal. Hope this helps :tup: |

j/k, man. Next time rev it to 3500 rpm, drop the clutch and you'll smoke all those bad boyz in their Dodge Shadows. |
heh i chirped 3rd in my A7 last week shifting in manual mode
|
I constantly chirp 1-> 2 and 2->3 and I almost never turn off VDC
|
The Z is one of the easiest cars that I have ever chirped...it will do 3rd without even trying...I love my car lol
|
Late last night, I turned VDC off as I turned onto an empty highway. I gunned it up to around 70 (the speed limit) red-lining both from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd. No chirping, no riding the clutch.
I must suck at spirited driving. |

Mind you, I don't personally care about spinning tired...I'd rather not, to be honest. Burn-outs and chirping tires aren't my thing, so I appreciate VDC for the most part. But all this talk of how easy it should be makes me sad. |
Make sure you listen carefully to the front tires because that's where all the chirpinage comes from.

People on Long Island need to stop buying 370s!!!!
lol jk.. im in port jeff station and I can not tell you how many 370s I have seen on the road lately... its getting crazy... I have seen more in this last week than I have in the last 6 months of me owning my 370... Do you go on Jayne Blvd ? I think I prob saw you on that rd, i flashed and waived at a PG roadster last weekend... |
also try shifting earlier around 5500, if you have sport package you should chirp and prob kick the rear out a bit...
Just shift faster, and be quicker wit you feet! |
Idunno about you guys but I can chirp consistently going into 2nd with VDC on... It really surprised me when it happened while i was test driving a 370z for the first time.

Turning VDC off got me to chirp 2nd. Adding an intake and exhaust lets me chirp 3rd now. :tup:
|
Yesterday, I chirped the tires going into 2nd with the VDC on. I don't even want to know what it would be like with it turned off...lol

I took my car to the track a month ago for the first time....I burnt up both first and second...I actually had to get off the throttle and then back on just so the tires would hook up. In my experience you need to be easy with the clutch to make sure the car hooks up properly.
|
Ya I can also chirp from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd with vdc on.
