Transmission: The kind that shifts....
Along with suspension mods, slicks and a really good road surface would make it possible to break 1g on a skidpad.
But no, no stock WS6 car has ever broken 1g on stock suspension and tires. But they do go to about .89g and .92g on the skid pad.

I have pulled a 1.07g on street tires on a skidpad test. Car is far from stock, it is also a lightweight V6 up front and doesn't have the notorious V8 push- this is why I built a V6 (and no, an LS1 is not as light and is still weighted further forward in the chassis)

AGood2.8, is your engine stock, or did you hop it up? Just curious as to what kind of power one can get out of those engines.
