Even with the vdc on when I get to around 5500-6000 rpms under wot the wheels break loose in first gear. I thought it was just bad conditions, but even when it is bone dry out it's still happening. Now I can deal with it, but the dame thing happened in second gear today, which leads me to believe there is something wrong... I only have a CIA done to it, so it's not because of too much hp (if such a thing exists) and the tires still look brand new. Hardly any ware. Any ideas? Thanks!

Oh yeah, and my starts/launches seem normal enough... And I have also noticed that i can take the rpms a hair past 8000. Is that normal? Did I get some factory freak 370z?
-Fuel cut happens well before 8K rpm
-Looking at your sig it looks like you have a peg-leg car, which I am suprised will hook even up to 5500rpm. You need an LSD or REALLY GOOD tire.
