2nd cos i can still do burnouts if launch in 2nd but it hits more boost than in 1st.
hundreds of millions of years ago god created faeces (shit) then honda added variable timing (v-tec) and 4 wheels and now they think they have the right to call it an integra

I have an auto but my fav gear is second. Coz when I'm stopping I flick it from drive to 2nd and it sounds mean. It;s real sad I know, but I can't get a loan to change it just yet. :wink:

Yeah, I remember the days when my trueno was an auto, before I converted to 5 speed. Dropping her from drive into 2nd was kinda fun, 'cause she would just fly. But my favourite gear with the 5 speed is 3rd, cause thats what I drop it down to when I wanna smoke the slow bastards on the open road :)

3rd gear, as it has the torque to pull me from 70-120 really quickly, and + its just a conviniant gear :D

It's gotta be either 3rd or 2nd. I love belting along *private roads* at 120km/h then jamming into 2nd. Slides very nicely that way. I'm surprised my 2nd cog has held up so well.

2nd gear in the GT, cos it throws you in your seat, and it seems to be the gear with best tractiovs power(obviously)

60-100kph
AE82 16.4 @136kph
