I was just wondering how fast everyone's 2nd gen's first gear is? Mine is so pathetic i've been beat by an accord in first gear, but then in every other gear it just keeps pulling. I don't think that first gear in our 2nd gens are that long to cause it to be so slow but then again i may be wrong. It's kinda weird cuz if i race a car starting in first i almost never win, but if i start from a roll in 2nd or 3rd they'll see my tail lights in seconds. Is this just mine car in general or does all of ours do this?

 

Learn to drive? That's where my car kicks everyone else's out there is on takeoff. 1st hits 30 in a blink of an eye.

 

yea no joke, learn how to launch your car .. rx7's can get off the line dammmn quik if you can drive

 

Agreed. Can't speak for the TII yet but my n/a had great launches.

 

Mines hit 40 before...Lol at the expense of fuel, and i've yet to hit more than 1/5 into the redline (buzzer hasn't sounded).

 

time for you to do a MT swap.

 

Wow is it me or have the threads in the FC section gotten worse and worse?

 

LOL probably

 

if its a newer accord its very likely so be nice :-P they new accords are exactly slugs....

 

Are you getting a bog when you launch? Try slipping the clutch with some gas to avoid that for starters, then get used to popping the clutch with a good trottle on. With my open diff as far as I'm concerned, I have no first gear when the turbo spools and barely a second. It's like driving on ice when it's wet outside.

 

first gear is slow ... second is a massive pull 3rd has like next to no gear as far as im concerned mazda fucked up with that one ..... and 4th is hella long ... pulls all the way to 200 kmh .. atleast that was my recorded speed in 4th ....

 

sad

 

mine bangs right through the gears pretty fast. 1st definatly pulls hard. maybe ur clutch is going out?

 

tokyo drift yo.......

 

this is the gayest thread I've seen in a while. . . the people bitching must have n/a's. .cause I know for damn sure an accord wouldn't even be close to my T2

 

WTF?! Are you kidding!? 3rd and 4th are the best gears EVER in our cars! Gahh! 5th is the one that sucks! Good god! Are you NA..?

 

My crown vic pulls hard in 1st.








Can mods lock this thread?

 

my NA pulls hard on all gears and on take off its quick as hell!!!

 

At a stop light my N/A redlines the 1st gear just as I'm leaving the intersection. That's 38mph, btw.

 

nope. not just you.

 

hell yeah some of them have like 240hp. im pretty positive its the V6's haha, dont know the weight though.

My 7 gets to about 30 or 35 in first.although, i usually only run it to 15 for DD

 

I just want to know what RPM's...u guys launch @...???

 

Feel ya rotorforce! I have been in the third gen section way more recently because lack of "promising" topics here.

 

2nd and 5th are definately the worst for my N/A

and i've got lots of mods

 

on my old setup...
i used to step on it in 1st gear and if it is past boost threshold... it just hits limiter....
