hmm they're all pretty good, 5th sucks, 4th is okay going fast on back roads, 3 is sick to drop on the highway ;) , and i like first because if i hold the rpm's just right (5K-5K) and let off and nail it i can get it to break the tires loose as it transitions to vtec:cool: oh and reverse SUCKS. seriously if my car rolls one inch it won't engage and is a pain in the ass. wish it was synchronized.

I like 3rd gear...but when I used go up into the mountainous boonies to go see my friend...I would stay in 4th going up those hills...

5th is the only gear I don't like... I'm sure if I had more power I'd like it... but 3rd is definately my new favorite... it used to be 4th... but now if I'm doing like 40-60 on the highway and I drop to 3rd... it RIPS... it's fun...

Gotta turbo my car.

hmm... it depends....

1st gear - in parking lots, nice churp + whiplash

3rd gear - 50mph to redline (9k up to 85mph) MMMMMMMMM, OH and feeling vtec engage at 6k... NOW THAT IS A TURN ON

in the civic... 3rd WOT shifting into 4th.

Anyone else love the sound of WOT shifting? Jonda, you don't count.

Has to be 3rd or 4th for me. I love love LOVE quick-shifting from 3rd and slamming into 4th...dunno...that's always appealed to me.

2nd. i can fly around corners and it pulls like a mofo. i can always chrip in and out of 2nd gear and well... its most suited for the type of speeding i enjoy. 3rd gear im doin 65+ to really have a decent amount of power then its mostly strait line and thats.... no fun
