Yeah still getting used to it that's for sure.

Only weird finicky thing is downshifting to gear 2 on this 8-speed automatic. I can't use gear 2 to break, only to accelerate. When I switch to gear 2 if I'm slowing down it'll jerk the car (only if I'm not already in gear 2, otherwise if I stay in gear 2 I can use it to break).

I am not into racing. If I were, I'd have saved my pennies and looked to the 1SS v8 Camaro, and done aftermarket work to it. I'm not into racing at all though.

Granted, a 5.1 second 0-60 is nothing to scoff at: 335HP with 284 lb-ft torque (and a fairly even torque curve across the rpm range)... that's pretty good. The torque isn't 1:1 with hp like some more expensive v6 engines, but considering what I paid, it's a ton of fun.

Wish my backseats were usable for adults though. Shame on Chevy, they could've added 4 inches of headroom easily without compromising aesthetics, that's the big issue. Sure if the backseats can't seat someone 6 feet tall and over, whatever, but 5'11" and down should be accomodated as a minimum.


yea fursure, im trying to get my hands on a 3s gte + alteza trans + ae86 dif and a custom driveshaft for my miata atm. might be overpowered but it would be fun to have a 2000lb car with nearly 300whp. i dont think i would even need to build into the motor with it.

At work I try to park between my boss and the secretary. Parking is limited due to construction that I want to avoid being near, which is next door. The secretary is kind and careful, my boss drives a perfectly white Acura that looks brand new but is a few years older -- shows how careful he is.



I spose. Just sweating every time I park! (If there's a concrete stopper).



You are already really observant of your surroundings you will soon learn what is within your limits and learn to avoid people who are rude and don't care for others since they have a 700 dollar 1996 toyota

absolutely nothing wrong with a person trying to protect their car.


long as he loves it. its special.


call your local shop that does audio install, if its a good shop they should be able to help you out. Might cost more than you think though.
