I tried 1900 but the brake could not hold the car still and when the tires started to spin the ecu killed the moter till the rpm went down to 750.

I thought its bad to launch an automatic transmission.... or is that slamming it from neutral into drive?

I never understood how to launch an automatic with the left foot on the brake. don't nissans now have that tech that when you hit the brake the RPMs drop.
