Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
I note that the OP seems a bit afraid to reply.....
On my accord I downshift normally between d4 and d3 for a little extra engine braking where necessary... and when mountain driving I get as far down as 1st for extra engine braking but I definitely dont shift down instantly like that.. have the car going slow and take it down thru the revs...
Now I will not support anyone going 110mph in an accord but to me that isnt the most idiotic part about it... to me the problem is approaching a corner at 110.. I find it amazing that when he hit 1st the car didnt just careen off the road leading to his probable death.. accords not being very safe compared to modern vehicles...
Concerning tyres, maybe they are speed rated to handle the speed but definitely not any sort of high speed cornering antics im sure...
Hmm sometimes I think idiots like this dont really deserve a reply, they should just blow their engine, trans, tyres, airbags (if they have), and intestines out, and then I guess they might learn...
Sorry for the diatribe but if you want to speed, at least be sensible about it.......

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
one time when I was 16 I got off an exit ramp corner going 105. That was Scary as Sh**, but I didn't crash. I was accelerating when I was taking the corner. I didn't even know that a stock f22b1 AT could go past 90. Never did that again...... But anyways I just love how people on this forum Bash on other people for making mistakes like they've NEVER made one in there life. I thought we were adults. But anyways To the op: now you know.

I'd have to say that the OP falls into the second category.

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
I am not afraid to reply, I just think its funny watching you guys bitch about how stupid and dumb I am, I was actually only going about 90 when I ment to drop it into 2nd and hit 1st instead because usually it wont shift down until its safe for the engine

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
dont change your story little boy, you clearly aimed to put it in 1st gear
"I just put it into 1st figuring that it wouldnt shift"
If you wanted 2nd why not put it in 2?.....
anyway not sure what kinda corner you are talking about but im pretty certain a 95 accord EX is not meant to handle that...

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
Yes it does, going at ~115mph at maybe like 4k rpm? I have not seen any data reflecting that it has an over-rev cut off. Nor have I experienced it myself.
In normal everyday driving you should NEVER have a reason to do what the OP did. All you're doing is blowing up trannys and probably the motor as well. The owner's manual clearly states what each one of those selections are for, the gist of it is:
1 - heavy snow/ice (you are going slow as ****) it locks you in 1st gear and does not shift upwards
2 - snow/ice/inclimate weather - same as above, starts in 1st gear then shifts into 2nd and locks you in
D3 - towing/hills/bad weather/etc 1st > 2nd > 3rd then locks you there
D4 - everyday driving
OP, while you think your idea is brilliant it is not. You went from practically topping your vehicle out to the bottom gear. You car easily revved over 9k rpm with that. Without a clutch as well it happened instantly and you were not able to control it (like a misshift, just jam the clutch back in and pop out of the gear).
Leave the damn gear selector in D4.
And as an FYI, at 110mph you have "intent to kill" if you had gotten pulled. Your tires are not rated for that speed and could have blown on you, your car is not meant to go that speed. And by the level of intelligence displayed by "downshifting" for a turn from 110mph I know none of that was considered. I would strongly suggest growing up and respecting the vehicle your parents probably gave you.

OP there is a reason that honda cuts fuel at 6.5K........

They all shift up. What you select just tells it what gear to shift UP to, you had it right the first time. The car will still start in first if you select 2.

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
actually, if you slap mine into 2 it stays in two.. doesnt shift down or up from there... a feature i quite like because if I wanted 1 I would put it in 1... very handy when mountain driving or engine braking in the hills...
i actually love the gearbox in this car, its very predictable and gears down exactly when i want it to unlike my volvo...

MuffinMan.......come on.......you know doing over 20 of the posted speed limit and then down shifting to 1st before a turn is the right thing to do..................(the world's most amount of sarcasm possible)
*Beats head against desk* DUMB DUMB DUMB!!!!

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
He is right. First is a lot quicker acceleration, but obviously only goes to around 40 or before RL. 2nd has a very sluggish start, as stated above for slippery conditions, but has more speed capabilities.

Re: redline of f22b1 engine?
Something must be really wrong then because (as you said) the car is NOT supposed to downshift until it is safe to do so. What happened in your situation is what would have happened in a car with a manual transmission. We own a 1995 Accord EX and a 1996 Accord LX (my sister and girlfriend) which are both automatic, and neither downshift until the car reaches a safe speed. When my civic used to be automatic, it also wouldn't downshift until it was safe.
You are lucky though that you nor anyone else got hurt during this whole mess. Now you've learned Some people NEVER learn until they learn the hard way. Consider this a chance you will never get again.
