Is anyone tracking a 2008 Z on race tires or at least a set of dedicated tires with wild PSI's and having problems or has dealt with problems with this system and how?

My idea, and please feel free to steal it, patent it, and send me the first set...is to make "dummy" wheel sensors for racing wheels that tell the computer everything is a fine 32psi, essentially defeating the system and allowing you to run without the computer shutting you down.

Any thoughts??

I had the exact same thought...but nope will not work. I bought a TPMS handheld programmer thingy, and reprograme when I change.

it would seem the on-board has no memory and cannot identify wheel off-side left a and b for example. The TPMS tool was frankly cheap and is easy to use.
