Yeah, I'll be there. For one reason, I am considered as a rookie to the club and it would be nice to finally put some faces to the names. As well I want to see the other member's rides! Try to make if you can.

 

Same here dude. I've only had the p5 for like 3 months, and have seen tons of proteges cruisin' around sauga and t.o. Would like to meet ppl in person too. I'll try my best. BTW, my name is Eric.

 

only 4000RPM?? what's the redline on those things??

 

6500, but the limiter kicks in at around 6800

 

ohhh... the way the guy said it sounded like he was pushing it at 4000....... with a 6500 redline 4000 should be normal driving......

 

3500- 4000 is the normal shift point for me

 

looks like we got an intruder on this thread =P


hehe

 

let's go race....

post some pics of your stereo and shift ****....

 

haha....alright man..i'll do it later on...i'm at work believe it or not



and besides man...my car's all show no go...should know that hehe

 

yeah... mazdas are slow..... oh wait.... i'm on a mazda board... my bad.....

 

I dont know nitramRSX about the pros being slow but I know is that if your acura is not the type-s I will take you but if it is the type-s im definitely dead oh well.

 

haha, well i drive an auto, so I have no problems with the shifting. I guess I could leave my foot on the pedal a little longer. So you guys seriously shift at 4000? I heard 2800 - 3200 is a good shift point so as not to stress the engine. But are you guys saying if I continuously shift at 4000 for the next ten or so year my engine will last that long? Well the thing is I also go to redline at least once a week... I know it's not cool to stress the engine for no good reason, but i just can't resist... I need help...

 

I heard that is not good shifting around 4k I normally shift between 3k and and 3 1/2 k. But when someone is in front of me and they are driving below the speed limit, I first downgear and take all the way to 10,000 Jk. I just feel that 4k is too much in the car unless you have like an acura rsx that has a redline of I think 7k or higher.

 

4000 on a 5-speed won't hurt anything and it isn't stressful to the engine. It's different on an auto, so you should try to keep revs a little lower...

 

Really? I didn't know that... Why does that difference exist between the automatic and the five speed?
