No 2nd gear wheelspin? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Jersthecool · 12-19-2011, 10:57 PM

I see people talk about getting wheelspin when they're in second gear just by punching the gas when the turbo spools. Idk why I can't acceive this as I'm driving on bald 205's and I'm making 300rwhp. Could it be because of the spool up time of my turbo? It's a gt2871r .86 btw

stephens14sr · 12-19-2011, 11:20 PM

need way more info. but that doesnt make since. i have probably 50hp less and i can with 225s...

RandallSharp · 12-19-2011, 11:21 PM

I spin into second in my N/A FWD Prelude at probably half that power on 215's. Sounds like you're doing it wrong, lol, jk

Jersthecool · 12-19-2011, 11:46 PM

Also I'm not talking about shifting from first to second and getting wheelspin then I can easily achieve that. I'm talking about just cruising in second gear and punching the gas and getting the wheels to spin.

Edit: I'm talking about like this how he's just cruising then hits the gas and the turbo spools then you see the speedo jump because the wheels are spinning.

Dude that supra has way more than 300rwhp plus he's got the torque needed to do it

Jersthecool · 12-20-2011, 12:43 AM

Yeah I still thought with 300whp I'd be able to do it in 2nd gear with bald 205's

Broker Face · 12-20-2011, 12:58 AM

u needz hella more torque, more displacement engine --> v8

Jersthecool · 12-20-2011, 01:02 AM

Yeah thought maybe it was the torque because I have like none when I hit the gas thanks for clearing that up

RandallSharp · 12-20-2011, 01:16 AM

Ahh, that's a totally different story. Yeah, you just need more torque

lude4life13 · 12-20-2011, 01:18 AM

Yup, you need torque for that. Drive a muscle car and you will see the difference that more displacement makes.

Jersthecool · 12-20-2011, 01:39 AM

Yeah I bet haha it would probably be crazy even the difference between my sr and stock single cam ka is a huge difference!

stephens14sr · 12-20-2011, 01:43 AM

also should have went with .74 2871

^This. My T/A barely has over 300whp and it can chirp just the tiniest bit in third gear (with 315/35/17's in the back) Doesn't mean it can stand up to a 300whp KA-T. It's all about the powerband. If torque matters so much, and you're willing to lose a few hp, get an exhaust housing with a smaller A/R for your turbo.

cotbu · 12-20-2011, 08:04 AM

I was doing this last night, any speed over 35mph I had to rev high to spin second.
35mph and under spun the tire before the gate cracked open. The stupid shit we do to impress our friends. (yeah, I was into it the 2 and 3 time though)

*fliprayzin240sx* · 12-20-2011, 09:23 AM

Shit, I can chirp 3rd gear with a smaller .64 trim on 245s.

!Zar! · 12-20-2011, 11:09 AM

I get second gear clutch slip, does that count?

/thread

N2HIFI · 12-20-2011, 01:54 PM

just put like 55psi in your bald 205's ... this should help your to much traction issue out a bit

lol

Nothinspecial · 12-20-2011, 02:03 PM

3rd gear rollers around 40 mpg with only 330 whp. on 245's. break lose every time.

I only get 39mpg is that why I only break loose on 235s with 340whp?

rb25_s13*CHUKI · 12-20-2011, 03:48 PM

ACT 6 puch clutch- check! Sr20 with fmic,exhaust,shimed actuator n some timing-Check 18x9 235/45/18 nitton 555 check! Welded diff check!

spinning most of first, powershifting into second for a fun fish tail and chirpping 3rd. all fun

TheRealSy90 · 12-20-2011, 06:05 PM

How about not being a douche trying to do rolling burnouts on the street.

Broadfield · 12-20-2011, 06:17 PM

I'm not really sure why you are wanting to spin your tires!?! I would kill to have traction. On cooler nights(60 degrees) rolling onto the interstate my old SR setup would light the tires up in third gear at 60mph.... that sucks in my opinion. Oh, and that was a 285 tire. Now grant it, there are tons of variables... tire temp, tire compound, pavement temp, I had a 6 speed trans etc. That was only 400whp and 333wtq. It will be interesting to see what the LS3 does with 500whp and 500wtq.

RedSiBaron · 12-20-2011, 06:21 PM

ya ^^^

who gives a shit if you can spin tires in second, if you owned a supra this thread would be:

"HELP!! tired of spinning tires in second, third, fourth, and fifth gear!!!!!"

TheRealSy90 · 12-20-2011, 10:36 PM

Well its okay if you can actually do them.

jesse_s13 · 12-20-2011, 10:42 PM

My clutch slips too so idgafff

herbieS13 · 12-20-2011, 10:44 PM

DinoMan · 12-20-2011, 10:44 PM

homeslicej2 · 12-20-2011, 11:06 PM
