Yeah dude, even manual would be high 5's to very low 6 if they were bad at changing gears. Good effort if you ask me. I'm only down to 6.4 timed, but that's because it's still a little sluggish off the line. Come xmas time again, it will have cams and 3.7 gears, it will be nice and jumpy then ;)

True, 6sp does give a fair chunk more power off the line, plus has less power loss so you actually get more to the road.

Mines not too bad in the wet with DSC on, will half spin as if doing a hard launch with s**t tyres while dry. But I'm too paranoid about giving it a decent boot, as I don't want to f*ck this car up.

Less than a week out from tune, getting excited lol

Nah, I wouldn't do that. Always need traction control for when it's pissing down and you need to drive on the highway. What tyres are you using also? I have Achilles ATR Sports all round, and the rears are at probably 75-80% tread. Good tyres for less than $100 each.

Oh the dunlops haha no wonder you're getting no traction! Even I could barely touch the loud pedal while bog stock in the wet on those tyres, and they were practically brand new. I think once I go cams and LSD end of the year, I'll maybe get something that will grip a little more. I buy my tyres online as you can get 2 for the price of 1 compared to getting directly through the tyre shops. So instead of costing a grand for all 4 tyres fitted, balanced and alligned, would only cost $600ish, which is a huge saving.

I need an LSD as well but they are a chunk of change but even like you said those dunlops even in the dry mine slip with traction controll on its stupid that's why an LSD would save some money for me make it harder to spin the rears
