rsx misshift

That hurts. But my 87 Accord saw at least 3 pegged tachs and kept kicking. Enjoy.

 

[b0mbrman]

Mmm...but I like that car. Bit of an improvement on the Integra

 

[punkrawket]

ahahahahahaha... what a weimo

I've hit the limiter in my civic a number of times and never had a problem. Kinda dissapointing for that car.

 

[Evadman]

Oppsies 🙂 that's what rev limiters are for, people who can't shift 😉

 

[ZeroBurn]

the rev limiter doesn't catch it for a downshift. mis-shifting is baaad.

 

[KokomoGST]

Wow, look at that speedo go...

Too bad limiters don't help on missed shifts or bad heel-toe downshifts. ick...

 

[brtspears2]

what really happens to the engine?

 

[ZeroBurn]

a bad mis-shift will totally f*k up your valves, they get totally bent out and the repair costs can be insane. usually you need to get a valve adjustment, but i've heard of guys who've straight blown the engine at less than 100 mi. on the rsx.

 

hahahahahh

How do you f*ck up the 3-4 shift? Pull straight back. EASY.

celica/RSX-S 😕

ive seen this before.. hahahahahahaha..... what a wiener err winner.

 

[TuffGuy]

how it's supposed to be done

 

[SeaSerpent]

LOL....I never do that in my 3000GT😉

 

[Nefrodite]

first of all why were they taping the panel? did they do it on purpose?

Ditto on a 98 EX 5spd.

Totally....A friend of mine showed me a site where this dude had pics of all the crap that flew out of his engine when he overrevved it. He said he was racing and accidentally downshifted to second when he meant to go up to 4.
how do you DO that?!

 

[Lucky]

good god, that is terrible. Thats a hard gear shift to misdo, unless yer shifter sticks or you are just dumb...

I think that was just something like the keychain rattling against something.

 

[evergreen96]

This is a know manufacture defective IMO..... I heard some pple mis-shifted the cpu register the lastest highest RPM at 14000 (14 x 1000)


IT is cause by the guide box is too close..... Check the ntsb or something like to check consumer complaints

and it costs about 9k for a new engine from what i heard

I hope they recall this or at least fix in the 03 model

 

[phatcow]

that really sucks.. lol

 

[evergreen96]

Jzero,

Can you find that website? I like to see this

 

[SyahM]

this is why i think the old model of integra is better, especially the type-r.

Do you mean with the RSX engine in general, or all engines?...

overrevving like that can bend your valves? lol.. How? lol.. That seems strange to me.

The weakest link in an engine is the connecting rod, you're much more likely to throw one(or two..) from redlining it than anything else...

You shouldn't ever near the redline while you're driving. It's pointless, all you're going to do is wear your engine out faster.. heh

Btw, both of those videos suck compared to that guy doin 220 on the motorcycle.. 😀
