You can have a 500hp car and after a while, you'll get used to it and you'll be in the same boat as you are in now.

Thanks guys, I felt like 89 wouldn't be that much of a difference from 91 but I was wrong.

you probably forgot to lower your VTEC engagement. it's gotta be way down there at like 2k RPM so you can feel that rush

True I noticed huge differences in power when not pumping the good stuff.

I have a feeling we're going to see more of these posts as more kids save up mcdonalds salaries for salvaged Gs.

I've got my coupe for 4 months now and it still gives me that adrenaline rush every time I floor it. I think maybe that's because I hardly go above 2.5k rpm during daily drives, its be baby lol.

I'v had my 08 sedan for a year-today.

Been driving slow for about a week. Today coming back from the car wash, I laid it to the floor in second and ran it through the gears. Hit 90 by the end of the on ramp. Still gives me a rush every time I run it down an onramp. This thing goes like a raped ape.

My dad has an 09 Vette and that car is quick. Like, properly quick. But theres just something about this 4 door, 6mt sedan that gives me a bigger rush when I run it through the gears..

^ I kind of agree in a way. I get a rush everytime I get on this car too! Haven't really gotten bored of it yet which is really quite rare for me. But the modding helped that I think a little. We will see where I am at in a few months lol.
