2nd gear chirp, third gear chirp
#1
I am just wondering who all can chirp the tires in second possibly third. I can usually chirp em in second, but have only chirped in third twice the whole year and a half I've owned the car. Does it mainly have to do with how good of a clutch you have? Any automatics get a chirp at the gear change?

Do you guys think that a lot of it has to do with a good strong clutch. Mine always seems to slip a bit when I shift fast. Btw it is a Nissan clutch. Is that my problem? It seems that it just can't take the extra hp....

From my experience, it is far easier to spin the tires in 2nd and 3rd with larger wheels and tires. My 235/45R17s would spin dramatically in 2nd and chirp 3rd quite easily. Now with my lightweight 16s and 215/55s, all I get is a nice chirp in 2nd and once in a blue moon a chirp in 3rd.

Mine chirps from 1st to 2nd every now and then...but i am also auto. Fear my auto! With NOS... i dont really want to find out. BTW i have Don's VB mod.
I think the amount of mods and how you would dump the clutch will matter. The size of your tires/rims will matter as well.

wouldn't it be hard to spin the wheels, if they are bigger, due to more weight.
