I was just wondering does anyones 02/03 Auto shift at redline in the 1st to 2nd gear shift when you floor it leaving it in drive. Mine shifts at 6,300-6,400 instead of 6,600 and my auto 350Z also shifts at 6,300-6,400 instead of 6,600. My sisters 04 TL doesnt go to redline either leaving it in drive.
Thanks

 

i dont think its supposed to go to redline when you floor it after leaving it in drive. I think it is designed to shift to the higher gear before you hit redline. Mine always shifts at about 5 grand. Now if you left it in 1 or 2 and then floored it, I'm sure you could hit redline no problem, but why would you want to?

 

It's been commented before that 2k2/2k3 autos shift from 1 - 2 at just over 6k, then will shift closer to redline on the other shifts

If you manual shift, at WOT I shift from 1 - 2 right when the tach hits 6k, and the shift happens at redline. Rest of the shifts you don't have to worry about. FYI, if you feel (and hear) a CLUNK, it's because you shifted too late and the engine hit the rev limiter as it shifted. So do it again, but better

 

I believe mine did one time, but I don't really get up near redline very often.

 

...all depends on how you drive it. Mine usually shifts just shy of 6600 rpm. Might be because I have one of the last 5th gens made. Literally: it was made in Jan. 2003. I bought it right as the 6th gens were coming onto the lots.

 

most sport-shifts are designed to shift the 1-2 for you at close to redline. i think the only one that doesnt is the audi and porsche TipTronic system.

 

mines shift at 6100 rpms if i remember correctly.

 

I belive if you stomp on the gas it will go far on the scale but redline no, its probably real close though.....
