First off, it's a manual 4spd. I guess I should have been more clear. I have been told by many that my synchros are bad in both 1st and 2nd. They may be the problem so thanks to everyone. And by the way......just the other day, I followed a dx four door to school and I could barely keep up with her. She has a manual and I seriously thought that it was an automatic because she shifted so smoothly. Is the DX trans that quick and good? She just zoomed on out of there while I'm driving like a granny just to keep up.

One more question. What's a good (get to work and get home) shifting point to drive with everyday sort of thing? I shift around 2.5k rpm. Maybe I'm not revving her up alot, but it seems like she's pushing real hard. Just need the advice I guess!
