Hey how many 1st to 2nd shift do u do in one day? I drive 30kms to work and I tell you I do quite a few. I know how to work around this "ill conceived" gear ratio but when you're launching your car it's annoying. Honestly there is always something that can be improved upon (in my case I'll openly complain about it, what's the sense of hiding it?), even in the Porsche and Ferrari. Every new model gets better and better. Hey the new Integra (RSX-S) has a sixspeed!! I'd imagine it's 1st to 2nd ratio is closer than the GS-r.

What u talkin' about Willis?? CAI ain't gonna take care of a lousy gear ratio. :slap:

.. Cause I know with my 7k mile GSR, I dont run into issue's shifting @ 8k and noticing a lag to second.
I know you don't have an issue with it... You have that "special issue" GS-r. :fawk:

its just not that much of a problem to worry about that would require money to switch out when you can be doing so much more with so much less $$$ fronted.
Different strokes for different folks... I know plenty of people that would be more than satisfied with a stock GS-r. Me I got my eye out for that special deal on an ITR tranny.:thumbup:
