How many guys are having runs with the 6sp auto?
I took the GTP for it's maiden run on Thurs night at willowbank (13.3@105) but the auto kept going into limp mode when I tried to do a burnout. Has anyone else had the same issue? It happened on the dyno too. Is there some sort of sensor that know that the rears are spinning whilst the fronts are stationary? |

Did you turn off traction control?
TC gets confused when you try to do a burnout.

Have done 50 plus passes with the 6 speed auto no problems.
(Brad) GT 8888 raced his 6 speed auto GT few months back, he didn't report any problems. Ash raced one 12 months back, same deal no problems... Have you raced it with no tune?

A bit stupid on my part, but no I didn't run the factory tune. I'll take it out again on the 17th and see if the same issue happens with the factory tune. What's your best 60" Spoolman? Is anyone runing a stally with the 6sp with any success yet? |

What do you run for rear rubber?
Or are you smoking up the 19s? What's the smallest (ie. cheapest) wheel/rubber combo that'll fit over the 4-pot rears?

Will be interesting to see how yours goes on the factory tune. Quote:

You could also use a toyo r1 18'' or nitto 18'' will cost more though.

There is a whole sequence of programming settings that need to be altered to stop the throttle from closing whilst attempting to stall up/doing a burnout. Has that been done?

I spent most of last week working on my tune to stop this from occuring in my F6. I wasn't able to get any significant boost and rpm when stalling the car up. Boost would stay stagnant at around 2 psi and 2100rpm. I am now able to get around 10psi boost @ 2500-2800rpm without the throttle closing. Get your tuner to do some more work on it.
