Default Grabbed 4th gear!

Has anyone else chirped a wheel going into 4th?

I'm completely shocked. I put in a 7lb flywheel and ACT clutch a few weeks ago, and finally opened her up last night to see the difference. I started out in first, chirped 2nd, chirped 3rd, and chirped 4th!!! Not a loud 2nd gear chirp, but you could hear it. Its definitely the clutch thats the difference. It grabs harder than hell.

No real point to my post. I'm just shocked.

Ha ha, congrats. I used to be able to do that in the right conditions with my gsr/ek hybrid.

My friend hit 5th one time in a b16/ef. How? I dunno.

Agreed. Maybe a little wider too. Barking 4th is pretty pimp though.
