if your left foot can't feel the pressure, then you don't deserve a shifting car. Learn to drive.
You can actually chirp the tires when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear![/left]
you can't chirpt tires in an OEM BMW M3 from first to second?
snicker
as much as i'd like to say all cars are better in a manual i had way more fun driving the m3 with the smg paddle shift. granted some might say it takes away from all the fun of a manual and driving the car and blah blah blah. i say fuck that. i'm already having fun driving an m3, throwing the smg in there just added to my experience.
yeah the fit. i think thats fun as hell to drive cause of the paddle shift in that car. the car itself is fun and would seriously look into buying one once my highlander gives out down the road.
i just never had fun in my manual m3 altho i atleast looked good.
i'm still waiting for you to put up or shut up.
i realized you would never do it the minuet i put the post up.
What does the vega require to run it? Is it close to streetable?
Limerock wouldn't let us into a "passing class" for 3 track days.
The car when I got it (After being parked for 25 years) broke second gear loose and chirped third. It would break traction at any speed at 5000+ rpm from any gear, although I only did it twice at 50 and 65 mph)
And the Vega needs it's gas tank resealed. That's about it. I have the oil leak fixed.
But what it's getting is fiberglass nose (hood, fenders) fiberglass deck lid (Lexan rear window) and fiberglass rear bumper. The wiring harness is almost done (I'm out of wire) and the cam gears are getting reindexed to finish the Formula 2000 spec reclamation. The exahust is straightened out and I need another California Red glasspack. The rear axles need swapped out to accept the S10 shafts and the front swapped over to the dropped spindles (To go to 5 lug because this 4x115 shit is ridiculous). I still have about $1000 mechanically, and a $2000 body budget left (Including new paint applied by me) The front end MAY be tubular if I can find a used Vega drag setup to rape for parts (Which may also produce a cage and fuel cell) Lightened flywheel combined with the electric water pump assist I should be able to do idle, to redline, back to idle in under 1 second (the 4AGZE Yamaha principle)
