4 speed?

[3kgtdrvr]

to u honda guys it may be a really stupid question but i dont know much about hondas really but i was lookin into buying another car and i found this ef and i was wondering if they made them with a 4 speed manual bc thats what the ad says. just wondering. oh and if anyone can give me the link to that article that i think was on hondatech that has a list of the weight of all the hondas that would be much appreciated, i cant find it anywhere. thanks

yeah, lol, its called the STD mdel. i had one. only thing it had was AC

what kinda gear ratios does it have....like can u even take it on the highway? lol bc i went from a 3000gt that i would do like close to 2k in at 60 and now im almost at 3000rpm at 60 in my 96 civic ex and im afraid if i get this thing im gonna redline goin down sideroads lolol

[2.0civic]

nah, lol, its geared high. i took mine to 110 before and it did fine. few weeks later replaced fuel pump and relay thoguh. my buddy is still driving it and at 70-80 its ok. i think i did 4500 at 90 but i cant remember. plus i think my old tach was off too


i drove mine everyday for about 6 months down 85 from winder to lawrenceville 80+ the whole way. lol, and i got my only speeding ticket in it...

what kinda gas mileage it get?

[2.0civic]

i got about 320 a tank dogging it. worst i ever got was bout 260

[3kgtdrvr]

how big a tank? what mpg?

[2.0civic]

i think its 11 gallon tank. even when i moved to l'ville and just drove 5 minutes to work everyday, i still got over 280 a tank. its small tank though

[3kgtdrvr]

u remember about what it revved to at 60mph?

[2.0civic]

2500ish. i had to take 3rd to 65 just to have any pull, lol. i had 315k on mine too and it still was peppy. not fast, but peppy

u remember about what it revved to at 60mph?Huh? Wouldn't that depend on what gear you were in? :thinking: The torque and power curve are completely different between the v6 and little SOHC half it's size....why would you be worried at what rpm's in runs? ...the honda at redline will still probably get twice the gas mileage as the 3000gt at 4k rpm's :tongue:

[3kgtdrvr]

im not worried about torque and power curve, just gas mileage. it was gonna be a daily beater and i knew they had to change the gear ratios to accommodate for the 4 speed but i didnt know how much. i was just curious, but it doesnt matter anymore bc the car is sold. thanks anyway guys
