That was pretty sweet. I would have liked to see the runs against the rustang though. Man that SC sounds mean!

hm they say the K24A2 is faster on the high end but dead even 3k-6k...but it looked to me like the turbo'd K20A3 was faster when he hit his shifts.

those cars are growing on me. i still hate the whole 'bent nail in the dashboard' positioning of the shift ****...but i dont hate the cars themselves as much anymore.

Have you ever driven one? I didnt necessarily like it at first either, but after driving one I gained a whole new respect. I actually really liked it there. The only issue I foresee is stop and go traffic. You'd have to hold your arm up and eventually that would get irritating. BUt as far as grabbin gears in a rip, I totally approve of the placement

I freaking cant fit in them! I wish i could cuz they looked fast! So the video was shot inside the Si witht he tsx engine? and his had a supercharger while the other one was a K20 with a turbo charger? I dont understand what happens in a miss shift? They just grind the gears or what?

Didn't watch the vid.. But a miss-shift is when you miss the next gear because you don't have the clutch depressed far enough, and yes you'll hear a grind.
