I've never driven an Integra. May I ask why they always seem to miss 4th gear? 3/4 should be the easiest shift besides 1/2.


Also FWD fail. 3rd to second and it actually grips because the weight transfers to the front end. There is very little reciprocating mass to resist the over-rev (internals, flywheel). In a RWD car if you missed that same shift you would have about a full second to push the clutch back in before it over-revs. The rear tires usually break loose and hop around before it bites and over spins it.

All :hail: the Integra owner. God's greatest gift to man. He can drive better than the likes of any world champion in any top tier racing class. I hear he even competed in MotoGP with his Integra and managed to lap the field all while running on 2 wheels.




Get over yourself kid. If you've seriously never missed a shift your car is extremely slow and/or your shift like Great-Grandma Lilly. The BEST drivers in the world still miss shifts on occasion. Like I said before, if you aren't missing one every now and then (not often) your aren't driving it hard enough. You aren't pushing your abilities or the car's mechanical limits.

I've gone in between gears on bikes several times. It's weird when it happens and the trans sounds like it's ripping itself apart when you go back into gear. It seemed to happen more often on Yamaha and Honda products than Suzuki and Kawasaki.
