Allen-

In 1st gear, my TL-S will break loose very easily. A couple of times it has spun the tires after shifting to 2nd. All other times it feels like its going too, but then it shifts and carries on.

I'm just wondering if everyone else's does the same... And who's TL does it every time. Obviously state what car you have and mods if any...

Also, I guess tires play a role. I'm on pretty worn All-Seasons.

I can usually get 2nd to spin a little, or enough to slip and keep it in VTEC range from 1st to 2nd.

I have Injen CAI and Apexi catback

no spin at all when shifting from 1st to second.

My TL-P would do it on occasion but it depended on the road surface and temp.

Now i can do it going into 3rd on occasion

it really depends if i hit it hard all the way through 1st, if I do, then yea i can spin almost all the way thru 2nd too. I havent done it since I got these new tires because they cost so much. BFG G forces. I have intake, headers, exhaust, no cat, pulley, and spacers

6MT showoff!

My TL-S never spins the wheels shifting into second, except when it's wet outside. Mods in sig.

shitty tires will do that.

Chirped tires going into 2nd before- bone stock '02 TL-S, nearly new tires, dry pavement. Shouldn't the TCS prevent it?

i slip on downshifts

rbsurfer

i have a tl-p with just a intake res removal and if i pull it all the way down into 1st and just tear through 1st and let off a little and put it into second i can make it spin and i have nitto neogens with about 70 % tred left

turn the tcs off

wait until it rains

and have fun burning up your tires and tranny
if your good you can get 3rd gear to spin nicely, but spinning the wheels around in wet weather does not count and its really stupid.

my friend go his VW spinning up to 130mph on a patch of ice, all we needed was a big rope and a tree.

^LOL funny you say that, my cousin went up to 120 in his 3.5 altima on regular roads on ice.. i was like omg

gold2003tl (90)

just hope you dont dig your way past the ice and hit dry pavement all of a sudden

thats why i wana take my car out on a frozen lake and just like em rip up too 155mph and take that famous picture of the speedo

A-SPEC DUDE

I HAVE STOCK 03 tl-s IN SUMMER ON NOKIA I GET 1ST AND SECOND WHEEL SPIN TCS ON MORE IN 2ND IF TCS OFF THIS IS CONSISTENTLY.

A-SPEC DUDE

And yes it is a factory a-spec

twistedwedge

Ive had wheel spin in second, but it has only been when I have the wheels turned ie: turning into a highway on ramp or coming off one. Good tires (Michelin), 80% tread. Bone stock '03 TL-S.

BensTLS

I drive gentle with the car. Never try hitting hard on the gas but maybe I'll try and see

ChrisQ1980

If I take VSA off and gate shift I can chirp 2nd nicely. With VSA on it chirps slightly. In full auto mode only on occasion.

TheBster

Like Q's S, mine will do the same on dry pavement any time, any day.
Normally, I try to be nice to my F1 rubber tho.

i used to be able to chirp them on the 1-2 shift with the vsa on with my old tranny..the new one wont do it though

FirePR2002

mine will chirp (and sometimes spin) in 2nd but i've never tried 3rd. i try to treat my car with some love as i want it to last another 100K miles so i usually back off before i accelerate that hard.

i have k&n (minus resonator), tb spacer, pulley, and exhaust (tips) that adds maybe another 4 or 5 whp.

Allen-

If your using the SS to shift, your supposed to shift around 6.2-5K right? After 6.5, doesn't torque drop off drastically?

Atlbrav1

Bone stock TL-S, will chirp 2nd pretty good on W.O.T. in auto mode.

FlacoJ

buy nitto invos if you want dry traction. Why spin tires when you can launch? Having one front tire spin isn’t cool in any gear; buy a rear wheel drive car with a solid axle if you want spinning tires, and to actually look cool. sure anyone can break the tires loose but why would I wanna burn through $320 worth of rubber in persuit of being childish

. . road surfaces and temps play a big role.

for mine . . with all the latest mods . . when it gets cooler . . it will break the tires loose when punching it in 1st (20-30mph) and will get a really nice chirp under most conditions, but will spin them hitting 2nd when it's cooler/cold.
