I used to shift at 3-3.5k until i got a few miles on my car. Now it seems running at a higher rpm is just more fun......by the way that 'louder sound' is your Honda coming alive

yeah, damn drive it as hard as you like. I have a 95 EX and have punched it to the redline about half the times I come to a red light and am 1st in line. My car still runs like brand new. And you might just pick up a race or two while you are at it!
btw- I FINALLY BEAT SOMEBODY!! yeah! An old ford escort! lol ![]() he wanted to race, and so I said fine! and handed him his ass. I think I beat him by 3 car lengths and he only raced up to 60mph. wimpo!! ha ha. made my day though ![]() so rev it up man! go for the gusto!! 1st gear is all you need ![]() lol, ok, so shift once you get to 35mph, but have fun, Hondas rule at taking a beating and keeping on running!
