The370z Useless Thread Part IV

No really, there's this silly gauge in my Civic. It's a dotted graph. When the revs approach 5k, the first of the lights illuminate. Then if you proceed higher, more lights light-up. Very exciting.

But "feel" anything? No. Just the screaming engine. Not much torque. No where near the same feeling in your backside as the Z.

Oh, ok...
Well, when the Vtec kicks the car goes through those revs much quicker, it opens the intake valves for a longer period of time

When you youtube it listen to the one with the intake INSIDE the car

Yeah, I know. I just can't feel anything of value.

I bought the STI back in October.

I actually wrecked my Z yesterday. I think it'll be totaled, but not sure
