But its really nothing more than a loud whine that sounds like u gotta shift when u don't.
You can avoid that sound by shifting at the normal 3.500 to 4,500rpm's. Or get used to the sound if ur not used to it already from past jap sports cars.
Yeah, sorry Need. I would never "NOT recommend" the car to anyone. I love this thing to death. I remember my first car... my '93 Ford Probe GT with it's 7K redline that never was that harsh. It's really minor for anyone that is looking for one, and like Need said, just hold out on the RPM's even though it sounds like you have to shift. We have a cool "blinky" light that you can set to whatever RPM you want it to come on at. That means, "Okay, shift you idiot!"
