I know i might get flamed for this because everyone thinks, "use the search function" is a good response.

I can't chirp on the 1-2 shift either, I think it's either because I'm shifting slower to prevent the 1-2 grind or 285s that the car is running in the rear.

2nd and 3rd will chirp easily. On certain pavement the tires will break loose in 2nd. When I leave my home there's a four lane I pull into. If the light down the way has just turned green I need to step on it to get in the far lane where I need to be. Once I got on it a little too much and was not going exactly straight. In 2nd gear I got sideways. I'm glad nobody saw me. I felt like a fool. However, after it was all over with I'm thinking, "This thing still surprises me." No such problem with my truck (Ford diesel 4X4)

To chirp second you have to shift right when your revs hit 9000rpms and let your foot of the gas and clutch shift, very quickly. A little practice and you can chirp everytime. You just have to make sure you hit 9000rpms before you shift or no matter how fast you shift it wont chirp. So hit redline and shift fast!!
