i was THIS CLOSE of getting a talon with the neon engine... i test drove it and EWWW my mx3 was much faster than that crap and i just walked out of the lot... they had 2 talons with same engine and ewwie.. never went back.

Also drove a 4 cyl eclipse spider and EW.. wasnt fast (auto) my brother did like it and he bought it.. go figure..8000 dlrls from that same lot.

I forgot to mention we raced a bit from a roll
We were going form 30mph, then we hit it
Once I floored it, my automatic kicked into 1st gear, went to like 6,800RPMs, then kept on going till like almost 50mph.
Wasnt really a race beacause at 50mph we stopped.
Atleast I was beating him by my back bumper (i think my back bumper)

Now he areally wants to race
When I get my KLZE he'll be toast

dude i got a 1.6 sohc. i raced my friends done up tiburon 145 hp and beat him, i raced a early 90s integra and deffinetely beat him big time a few times and i even beat an rsx once out of like 3 trys, you should be able to beat a talon n/a easily just having a 5spd 1.8

I am going to keep the stock ATX
I dont have a 5speed
I just dont have any faith in our cars as far as being stock
To tell you the truth, I doubt you beat a RSX. It just isnt possible

I got a wierd question
Would shifting from 1st (L) to 2nd (S) and 3rd (D) help as long as I dont have it on the HOLD light help or would I just be killing my transmission?

A friend of mine always does that in his car, hasnt had problems with his ATX... yet

a friend of mine did that to then his car wouldnt go in reverse, its too much for the tranny to process though itll work for a while. your other option is a shift kit. a shift kit is actually much better then a 5 speed. it shifts for you better then a standard im told by many people.
