Default RE: The long answer

the answer is simple, put it in neutral, rev it a bit, and then put it in drive. even works for my 105hp corolla. not good for your trans tho

thats why they have a bow tie on them and not a blue oval

the auto tranny also starts off in second gear, take off slowly, and at about 7 m.p.h push it to the floor and you will feel it downshift. pull it down to first gear, and floor it you will have atbout 10 ft or if its raining atleast 30 ft.

btw if O/D is off does it start off in first gear ive, never tried it.

i dont burn out- ever. wide tires are too expensive. but if i wanted to, in my auto, just brake with left foot, gas with right and at about 1500rpms (stock) it will spin, or now it is more like 2200rpms before i can turn the tires with the brake and gas on.

if you neutral drop it, yes, power brake, you just wear out tires quicker, and brakes a little too
