yeah but u lose some horse power from the drag of the muffler bearing and the downforce on the rear wheels.

If you add blinker fluid it helps a lot though. Plus if you upgrade your powerband to one from a BBC you can gain some low end.

Speaking of transmissions.

I think my 2nd gear syncro is dieing, I cant hear it grind but sometimes I can feel it in the shifter. The other gears are kinda slow to sync up too. Maybe it needs the fluid changed?

I do need to try double clutching the 1-2 shift. Car also gave me crap over going into 1st the other day at a light. I discovered today that the car is nearly impossible to start if its been raining. Probably wires or cap and rotor.

I now double clutch everything and the car drives way better till I can afford some redline MT-90.

Hehe, I learned to double clutch on the first car I drove when I was about 10 (the car had no synchro on first-second). Since then I've always done it. Hearing someone downshift without double clutching just makes me shudder. It doesn't sound right.

I did it for the lulz, in other words, IDGAF and I think its funny. I'm getting rid of the Mitsubishi the second I can afford something better, my K frame is rotting out, as are the upper control arm mounting points in the rear suspension. I only bought the car because I could no longer stand not having one, and I knew nothing good would come up until I had a car.
