that should be more than enough to show that auto supras (and most other fast cars) are faster in at least drag.

haha youre a funny guy. "oh you must be 16 because you got soo mad." man what a great philosophy you got goin there. the only reason i got mad is because i deal with retards like you on a daily basis. people who hear things from other people and dont do any research on their own. i will refuse to believe that an auto supra could beat a stick supra. with a good driver the auto tranny would have no chance. and if its the final drive ratio thats the problem, then why not put the same gearing on the stickshift and see how fast it pulls away from the auto. and about maintaining boost with the tranny, the only reason the tranny is associated with keeping boost is during shifts, but any retard like you could shift fast enough to keep boost and if "most other autos are better for drag" then tell me why all those pro drag racers out there use stickshift. huh little boy? why? oh i know, faster!!!!! and if you go talkin about those american v8's with their turbo 350 trannies id like to stop you before you post. with a v8 that produces as much torque as american v8's do, the driveline's weight doesnt matter. it has the torque to spare to turn the extra parts and weight. but thats besides the point..

and about me driving a VW, what does it matter to you what i drive? i know a lot about hondas and acuras and enjoy helping others from making dumb mistakes and prevent people like you filling their minds with info you put together second hand and not from your own knowledg. you must be one of those guys who think an intake will give you 15+ hp huh? just because the ad says it. and my VW would destroy your civic not to mention that its 16 years old and still worth double what any 6th gen or below civic is worth today.

"civics are not supras. vw's are not supras." wtf does this mean? because i drive a vw it means i know nothing about other types of cars? i know a lot about bimmers, audis, and porsches too. want to try me in those subjects too???:finger:

This is to CivicKiller( everyone else is acting like 4th graders) I plan on going mostly show like A/V system and Wheels. But I still want an I/H/E Thats why I want a auto because I plan on puttin 18" on it. I dont care about the weight for those people that are going to say "18 thats gonna weigh alot!!" I know that thats what the I/H/E is for to make up for the wheels and add TQ....... THANKS CIVICKILLER Hey what do you think about a doped out Accord??? sound good?!!!
