Well i noticed when i turn a corner or followin someone that turns if i punch it down at 10-25mph it won't downshift it revs up to redline then shifts. Its like the tires are spinning but there not. think its in 3rd gear. from 35mph+ It downshifts fine. and from a stop it shifts fine.

Just learn to keep the rpms up and it won't upshift itself. I know what you are talking about and it's annoying. Its easier to hold with a stall thats for sure, but it still happens to the best of us. Practice makes perfect my man. And practicing is fun, just watch out for the police when you do it.

My '93 Z was doing the exact same thing when I bought it. Replaced the water temp sensor at the pump and a new pigtail from EFI Conenction and it was a night and day difference. The car wouldn't ever downshift like your are explaining, afterwards though...
