next time you encounter a red mustang on the highway, change lanes and let him pass...

LOL.

Run the usual tests to determine what is wrong. Pull the head, and be prepared for what you will probably see. Good time for a rebuild though.

His post is in the RSX Civic 2001+ forum. He can't be stupid enough to race a Mustang with a Civic.

how do you go from 3rd to 2nd.

3rd to 4th is the easiest shift, and i love doing it, i could do it for days, cause your not being thrown in the back of your seat, things are going smoothly, all you do is pull it down, and accelerate.

mm, im doing it right now... oh god im having an orgasm.

i dont see how you went from 3rd to forth.

thats like im possible.

i hope that i never make that mistake.

3rd to 4th orgasm again..hold on.. mmm...

i think im going to go out and drive my car and repeatedly shift from 3rd to 4th because its so much fun and i dont know why, its like yeah i own this damn road, and you shift and your like man i am so cool..

Exactly. At least the stupid kid didn't kill anyone. I wonder if the friends that he had in the car and the driver of the Mustang think that he's more or less cool for trying to show off on the street?

Anything is possible.

However, I'm not sure what you're doing. This is Honda-Tech not a brothel.

......Well **** happens, good luck with the new motor.

A mustang will own a base RSX, so why even try. You showed off for your friends and tried to show off for the mustang owner. In the end you blew your motor, and you looked like a damn fool for your friends and the mustang owner.

::golf clap::

Maybe next time you will learn to be patient and ignore the idiots on the road.

dont pull your arm towards your body to shift to 4th. pull straight down with your elbow sticking out. less chance of a misshift

Well you should really drive a rsx before you comment on shifting. The rsx gear box is real close and its very easy to mis-shift in them. I have drive civics, integra's and many other manual cars and they do not compare to the rsx. the gear box is real easy to misshift.

So try one out then comment on the matter.
Regardless, this guy tried to show off and learned a hard lesson.
