Hey guys, just got back from vacation in Vegas (which kicked ass). I just learned how to drive my car, and I'm learning fast. It's not too difficult, and I have only stalled 3 times.
I love the Integra. It's fast, sounds good, and is fun to drive. DAMN do I love stick shift! For anyone who doesn't have a stick shift car...get one!
I know that some of you will/have given me a hard time about the Integra, but I feel it is a great car (and that's what matters). I still have a spot in my heart for the CDW27 cars.
I'll try and be at dyno day with my car. Later!

Maybe it will turn up at one of the yards here in IL.
Integras are OK, but I prefer a Blue Oval product. I helped a friend get a CRV, so I don't hate Hondas, but they are eventually going to get knocked on thier ass! Example, Europeans are turning their noses up at them, sales suck over there.
BTW, The upcoming Ford "500" looks like the spiritually successor to our Contours.
2000 SE fleet, V6, ATX, ABS, no spoiler, T-Green/tan. Built 01/2000 in MO.
Added 12 spoke factory SE rims, K&N. Biggest mod: ESP Plan!

QB] AMEN! Small displacement motors work BEST with a stick shift, not fat torque converter to rob power. Practice makes perfect as always, in a few months of daily driving, you'll have no troubles. The old integra is a great performer for a 4 cyl car. Just be careful, dont abuse it, and it should last forever too! See you at the autocrosses this summer! Mark
