It's impossible to make the tires sqeal without the traction control cutting power to the wheels, it's very frustrating.

Is there a way to shut it off? I can't figure out how.

Wow man... hey shook, I hate to say it, but do us all a favor, and SLOW DOWN.  Also try using sentences.  Please, for my head's sake. 

You can get a truck to spin tires on dry pavement, even with an auto.  Mine does it all the time.  Of course, I think in my case it's more of really crummy tires.  But I know it'll still spin them with a good set... you just need the right type of pavement.

Also Shook, he's got 2 things going against him that we dont.  Weight, and 4x4.  Now Laziale, what type of engine do you have?  The 3.3 or the 2.4? 

Now for the disconnecting of the traction control.  There should be a connector hooked to the differential.  But there's a slight problem with disconnecting this.  It's probably going to set off a warning light in the truck.  And you'll have to go down to Nissan to have it cleared.  I haven't really looked at the new 05's.  But the principal is all the same. 

The sensors determine which tire is spinning faster, or if both of them are, and cuts the power.  If the sensors can't read the difference, it can't let the ECU know which one to cut power to.

I have an 05 with the NISMO package and haven't had a problem barking the tires. I'll tell you what, that 4.0L is a bad engine so if you are having problems barking the tires then you aren't giving it enough gas... I haven't seen any thing about traction control on my truck, just hill start assist and hill descent assist. In fact I've seen every thing under the sun except for traction control... I'm going to go look at my truck and see if there is anything on traction control.

Yes, but you have the NISMO package which allows you to turn off the VDC (which I'm assuming is what's causing my problem) and I don't. I have the LE without the leather package which excludes the hill-desent etc..

hay hows it going everyone, i have a 05 4x4 v6 manual . now if u want  u have to go down to the dealer and have them bypass that sensor, now see i have a question for you, u want to take off the traction control just to spin the tires? that traction control is put on there for a reason. with you having the 05 im sure u are aware of the power is has espesialy while turning. with out that traction control u might have a hell of a time holding on to that truck in severe driving conditions.

... Gee after all these years I thought people that squealed the tires were just physical uncoordinated. I did'nt know they were just trying to damage the drive line and wear out the tires sooner.... J/K!!!

Have a good one  and CUL.. Don S..
