My response would be. Sunroofs suck. [/QUOTYeah thats true. I already had to replace mine. But that was only 50 bucks, versus a new tranny 100 bucks.

I have a ex tranny in my vx, definantly better acceleration. But you lose gas mileage, because you are about vtec-e almost all the time, especially freeway driving.

It was bad. He should not even tell anyone. Hopefully the tranny will get him into the 16's. Thats all i am going to say.
