If I'm remembering correctly, the old GT-Rs had transmission failures because of the stress that launching (foot on brake and gas at same time) places on the transmission.

Ultimately your call if you want to lunch your transmission, but just something to keep in mind

Definitely agree with ya, I don't do this that often cuz I still baby my Z, but i just wanna have the ability to make her work when i want to
