First gear - No matter where you are in the RPM's you will roast the tires

Third - my favorite gear, also very strong pull
Forth - Keeps pulling and pulling
Now when i started in first and power shifted up till forth gear it went like this.
First gear, i just roast the tires.. Bang second more roasting... Run the gear out and spin going into third... pulls hard and chirps going in to forth.
That was the suprise for me.. I have never chirped that hard going into forth. Put a big grin on my face.
I will post up my logs from the track like i have done before. I need to see where i am in the powerband when shifting to each gear.

Are you on the stock viscous LSD? That may play a roll... my Nismo was a great improvement over stock.
I've tried launching in 1st from higher rpms and the tires struggle to grip even if I take it easy.

Gives you a nice idea of what each set of gears will do with your car and setup.

Yes, the reflash does raise the Revup rev limiter. From what i remember it raises it to 7500-7600rpm.
With my engine ( 03 ) i have been reving it to 7200rpm for over 3 years now. No problems. I dont bang it off the limiter though.

I guess the reality is that there is probably no power made beyond a certiain limit anyway. But it sure is nice to shift later. lol. I would expect my revup to be able to rev to 7.5k . Not that it will make power all the way to 7.5 k but just have the ability. lol

I need to do some logs to see where i land in the next gear.
Before the gears, i landed around 4800-5000rpm into the next gear.
I will let you know

I see everyone here pretty much gets Technosquare reflashes.
Have any of you ever thought of UpRev's Osiris product? You can choose the rev limit you want and flash the ECU yourself. You can also use another program (Cipher) that comes with Osiris to log A/F, timing and many other functions so that UpRev can create a better map specifically for your car. I have it, it's pretty cool... switch between 5 maps with your cruise control... plus no need to mail your ECU in for flashing.

With the reflash.... What happens to power levels? (i'm trying to visualize a graph) It completely tapers off at 6600 still?
I'm thinking about raising my rev limit to 8k...and trying to decide if its worth it. Will prob go with the 4.083 too.
Here's my planned set up (for drag and road racing use):
1. Quaife LSD
2. 4.083 gears
3. 285/35/18 tires in rear
4. Nismo sways
5. Tein S-Tech springs
6. GT Spec braces
7. Reflash to 8k
8. Fi Exhaust / Test pipes (or turbo xs)

Thanks Alberto... 8k would keep me in 4th too right? also, how do you determine this?
