is the SE (3rd gen of course) suppose to have weak low end power (would that be 1st gear?) because when i leave a stop light the car feels like it feels like the car is not pushing hard. or is it my car?

well all the autos have pretty weak low end power. the sticks you can just drop the clutch and launch 'em, regardless of engine type. i'm planning to get a protorque tc, then maybe i can chirp the tires a little.

If you have a 92-94SE

Which is a VE, that's the characteristics of how the auto's pull of the line. But, as I'm sure you're aware of how it pulls past 4k RPM, later

isn't it bad to drop the clutch?

BTW i have a stick w/ the VE. also i got this little clip of a VG going 120+ mph and his cars sounds smooth all the way to the redline, while mine doesn't want to push any more when it hits 5k (rpm)

CandiMan, are those Eibach springs with the Body Kit or did you slam it with body kit?
Looks alittle to low for what i want with the body kit but looks tight.
