im kinda scared to take it to 5.5 6k when i get up there theres like a rattling sound but its not bad i mean it sounds like a leaf stuck in the grill but obviously not anyways. thanks.

lol nah i use to live in laconia, too lazy to change profile, lol once again I say, Mazda's = made for revving, you arnt going to hurt your car, drive it like you stole it, shift at 4k regular and 6.5k having fun, thats my motto

s--- i bounced the old Sohc off the rev imiter more times than id like to admit.
Rev that biatch

nice....i will hopefully i dont blow my engine

yeh i was shifting really high otw home from work tonight.. all i can say is awsome.. when ur over 5k and it sounds good people look like wow....

hey same here lol i was shifting higher today after reading this forum thing that i started lol.

Around the city i usually cruise at about 55kph in second gear
And if I'm just driving i usually don't shift until 4-5k. Mazdas are happy when they're wrung out... like nothing I've ever seen, really. My old Corolla used to HATE me... the engine would run just a hair rougher every time I finished revving the **** out of it.

sweet. yea its pretty good times.

only if your car is fast though...i've looked at alot of people reving the crap out of their engines (usually civics but not always) but not really going anywhere fast. all i can do is shake my head...

I always get a laugh out of this kid in town with a civic, he ... made it look like he's got dual exaust, I think he just cut it off at the headers. I think he drives through town in first all the time, sounds like he's doin mach 2 and he's just creapin allong.

haha thats halerious...howver you spell it...im stupid.

My guess is that you're NOT stupid. But you ARE rather hard on yourself.

lol. i havent been to a meet yet i wanna do a meet. im from nh i keep posting in northeast club but no one ever replies. anywas i got an interview this saturday for a job i was looking just to save for a turbo kit for my 1.6 sohc. also im hungry.

My ATX "shifts" at around 2k(rough and fast) or 1.75k(smooth and steady). Tonight I tried to rev it to 4k just to see what happens and it got upto 95mph so damn fast and the revs fell back to around 2.9k. Just my luck i passed a cop car at that moment and had to reduce speed and take the next exit. Luckily the cop decided i was not worth it and went his way. Anyway i cant imagine what would happen if i revved up to 6k .... The engine turned into a beast above 3k. If only this performance was available in low rpms city driving would be so much fun ....

If I'm really trying to get somewhere quickly I take it up to 6K no problem... but it's really hard on gas.

I usually shift between 4-5K...
