dealer replaced my engine. and since i got it ( almost 2 months) when i am in tap shift about a 1,000 rpm before redline the gear light will come on. now usually this light only comes on during tapshift and u hit the limiter and it bogs down.. it was kind of cool/nice to have this little gear light for a while, but now its not doing it.....
any input?

No problem, the shift light is cool, but when I had my GXP I always had the HUD on.

Anyway to activate it, tune-wise, to work with the HUD? I'd thought the light was just out on mine, my HUD is never off, either.

well we all do , im talking about the light above the traction control light. its a symbol that pops up ( the symbol literally looks like a mechanical gear) go turn the hud off and floor it in tapshift in first and see

I tired it yesterday on my way home from getting parts I never noticed it before cause who looks at the cluster when you have a working hud.

haha, its awesome! comes up a little early for a perfect shift, but its still pretty neat! i think its pretty funny alot of us guys who thought we knew everything about our cars and have been active members here for a while are just now finding this out

I didn't even know the cluster went up to 160mph untill my little cousin said "holy smokes your car can go 160!!!!" haha I never turned my HUD off, I'm usually in "stealth mode"

I got these after that happened, the tires warmed up a bit. Yes, I know it's bad, and it spinning tires and catching and spinning more will kill my trans, but so will any other type of driving with this thing.

First one is 1-4. Second one is self-explanatory.

Audio is out of sync because of the file type.

And it was breaking traction with cruise set at 75.

Next time it rains, I'll get you some better videos.

lol, Sounds really good, is that a cut out? I only called bs on the 185 as im also in the 100 + burnout club.
lol @ rain. jealous, my gxp sits in garage, driveway sits in 4" of snow, grand am winter car sits on rev limiter.

Cat delete, res delete, and what ever Magnaflows came with the kit I shouldn't have bought years ago. The phone I'm using right now has a horrible mic.

Bald tires help.
