Is there a way to hold 1st gear to limiter in a vr auto?

[Thomas1]

we're talking about auto v6's yeah?

Not all auto V6's are slow

 

[soop]

Yes, yes they are .

 

[Thomas1]

Well I have an auto V6 and I wouldn't call it slow

i was told when i had a stage 2 transgo shift kit put in my vr ss a few years ago that the box will be in whatever gear the shifter tells it to be in regardless of revs or speed. wether thats true or not i dunno because i never tried to hold it on the limiter

I think he's aware, and it is slow by comparison to most modded V8's.

for example a manual equivalent of your car is gonna be 20% faster already, because it doesnt have the powertrain power loss an auto does.
He's badmouthing all V6's and you're taking the bait.

LOL. I still stand by my original statement that not all auto V6's are slow...

A stock auto ecotec is slow, yes.

LOL, I was waiting for a certain fanboi to start spouting 0.4sec 1/4 mile times and special gearboxes.

Old mates VR that does hecktic skids in 2nd gear must be an absolute rocket though

 

[padrickz88]

Get diff gears then do top of 2nd gear burnouts lol

U leave my vr outta this, my mate vr will barely spin as does his brothers, sorry for stating mine will spin second to
