Yeah they're not great for boost but its more the high compression, any high powered n/a isn't going to last long with a turbo. But cams and a couple little mods would see 20-30kw gains.

The whining of the reverse gear would cut any enjoyment of that.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe VTEC can only be engaged when traveling over 15 mph. The high redline should be able to achieve that even with a relatively low gear ratio. If it wasn't raining I'd seriously be tempted to try it -------------------- ![]() |

Spring Fling started out pretty muddy, good thing I drove the Subaru.
And in other news, after having the Celica running for a couple of months now, the clutch went out.. FML, lol.

Midnight, are those Rota wheels, König Rewind...? They are XXR513's 15x8+0 with 195/45 Nexans. Another picture from when I first got it. Only mod at the time was a Trust shift knob and Garage Vary front lip (yes, a real one) You can also see the front fender of my buddy Kevin's MR-S.

sold the Z. needed a more reliable car with a back seat that is useable. Plus 30mpg is a nice change from the Z's 20mpg 2006 Civic Si (fg2) ![]() ![]() I was actually about to ask you about this when I saw it on facebook. Houston's a bigass city and 19-22mpg isn't fun. I'm tempted to follow suit and sell the G for an Si coupe in blue but the G's paid off, so *shrug*. -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}
