I'll add that I too have never shifted into 2nd by accident in my life and have owned various cars from RX7's,Talon and many Hondas.How do you to that

no difference at all, just before i was boosted some kid came up to me in best buy and asked about my hatch, he asked if it was gunna be a homemade turbo setup, and i said yes. seeing how i dont think too many tri city fellas know about hmt, i would just ask if you are asian.

if your not, then the kid who asked me drive a white turbo ls teg.

That's a pretty complete, if somewhat too-high dollar for the power, setup without a bunch of crap he doesn't need. It's obvious the owner doesn't know much, whomever set up the car with those parts choices seems to have done pretty well. Shame it's shitcanned now.

My problem was always shifting from 4th to 5th while the passenger gets the smartass idea to adjust the stereo, hitting my hand, deflecting me into 3rd. 9000-10000 rpms on an LS is scary, but both times I was quick with the clutch and aside from re-lashing the valve adjusters everything was okay.

After that, I took the stereo out of the dash, and set it between the parking brake and pass set. Problem ------- solved.

Had only one mis-shift misshap in my rex, racing some POS acura 3.2. Went from the top of 2nd (6400 rpm's) to 1st (the dark side of the tach) and i shat my pants, drove home going the limit and being nice to the car.

Who in the ---- messes with someone's stereo at 10K, I would slap a hoe.
