Am I doing something wrong here? Why is it that, with the traction control off, I can't get the rear wheels to spin? Can someone hepl me? Thank you all.....I love this site!!!

Do a search. There are a number of posts about this. There is a brake fuse mod that needs to be done to do the power braking.

 

LOL how would you even go about searching for something like that?

Type in, "damn I can't spin my tires" and see what it brings up?

That sounds kind of weird. Seems odd that you have to do a fuse mod to spin the tires with the brakes on.

 

I just did a search with "brake fuse", and a bunch of posts came up. The mod is to disable the TCS/VDC totally. Just turning it off by the switch, will not work.

 

Ahhh another mod I won't have worry about with the base Z :-D

 

Thanks alot!!
Am I the only one concerned we can't spin our tires?

 

You can spin the tires, just don't push the brake.

 

Take the tcs off, put it in drive, and hammer down!

 

I just drop clutch at 3k or higher and slam down the gas... I spin the tires regularly, same with chirping 2nd lol

 

Why is it so important to spin your tires? For show? It will only make your launches slower when your tires are spinning, trying to race yer buddy. When was the last time you saw a Porsche do a smoking PB burnout at an intersection?

Buy skinnier tires.

 

Uhh...I can do it just fine. Turn of TCS with the button(which only does it partially), hold the brakes, and hit the gas. My tires spin just fine.

 

It's not important at all. I just wanted to have a little fun every now and then. I take off TCS, hit the brakes, pedal to the floor......nothing. The brakes over take the engine.....and their stock....thanks for the inputs though.

 

Hmm, try a different pavement. Like tar...that's nice and slippery. That always seems to work for me, but my current tires are near bald.

 

Practice 60-foot times at the dragstrip. Try several techniques:

no spin
a little spin
burn those mothers!

After, say, 10 runs, come back and post which technique gives you the best 60-foot times.
