If u encounter a MB6 Civic with its 1.8l DOHC engine ure almost dead:frog: -ure shifting into second gear, the civic laughes
, ure shifting into 3rd gear, the civic gives a party
No really, Ive driven such a thing and lol what a fun- trust me it is fast as hell, especially due to the extremely long gear ratios- no problem with driving 70kph in the first gear.
I myself think that gear ratios are very important for the acceleration, a friend of mine has a MA8 civic with 90hp. Some days ago a Opel Calibra with 115 hp and 2 liters stood next to him on a light. They both started good, the Calibra followed him with no difference until he shifted into the second- from that point my friend pulled away from him- he simply could gain more speed until he had to shift. Another thing I noticed was that when u shift with most cars up (maybe into second gear) ure loosing much of the power ure having on a honda this phenomen is much smaller!
