    well I was driving home today from work & just to see what was up with my car..
    I came up to a red light, held the brake a lil & gassed it until it was revving at 2k (TCS ON!, just rained.. street is wet a lil bit), held it & i let go of the gas waited til it hit 10mph & gassed it, it spinned the tires & i let off the gas a lil & gassed it again & im not sure (im a NOOB at these cars) if its supposed to do that but it held the gear like it was spinning at 3.2k around there & felt like my car was stuck .. maybe its the tranny thats giving out or maybe its the conditions i did it in, OR i just need to learn how to launch correctly, & maybe... all of the above hahaha ..

    thankz for your help people (:

    any lauching tips would be GREATLY appreciated
    that holding it until 2k or about i got it from a person here at the forum,
    so dont blame me haha

    If you want to launch your car turn traction control off.
    Red GTP coupe, Intake, Poly Dogbones. 8K HID's, Headers, DIY HUD, Aeroforce Scan Gauge,Kenwood Excelon KDC-X794, MSR 045 18" rims, Borla Cat-Back.

    I disprove of peoples actions, and want to mega man punch them in the testicals.

    I don't know what the car is supposed to do, I kept slamming and letting up on the throttle on wet roads with traction control on and the car acted funny. I thought I should post a transmission slipping thread.

    ^^^This is what I read in your post. Please..please..stop pounding on the car in the rain when you have no clue of what it should do at a given time. You are a transmission rebuild waiting to happen, it would be wise to being saving about $2,000 for that.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    TRUEEE
    I admit it

    but the thing is it will do that even though its in dry weather..
    &for Your Info i never do that, first time i did so.. got me tripping on it,
    pissed me off & posted the thread

    It would feel like it would slip between some shifts..
    & if im at a stop & say for some reason i have to step right away on the gas a hard knock would be heard & felt (MOSTLY FELT u.u) u.u

    OTHER REASONS FOR POSTING THE THREAD,
    but yeah its rare when ill stomp on the car from a stop (:

    I thought it might be that too, but wouldnt it be thumping (something like that) when i would make a tight turn?

    I wasn't saying I beat my car, I was translating what you typed.

    Save up for a trans and axles. You're heading there and like you said...you've got the money to beat it up.
