Cool video! I actually did think your car was black by looking at your sig so I was surprised to see the green in the sun.

You car sounds great, I liked the vid. I love the green color too!
for those talking about him chirping into second, its easy to do with the MEVI. Before I would chirp, now with the MEVI, I spin for about 1/2-3/4 of a second when I hit second gear

i actually would like to clairify the MEVI thing. Yes you can spin easier into 2nd gear but i currently am NOT running the MEVI as i sold it a couple weeks ago but the latest enginebay photo i have is when i had it still on. Sorry for any confusion

There don't seem to be tons of 5-speeds up here but you can find them for sale if you're willing to travel. I may sell my car for a cheaper 97 when I go to school, then I could get one. Theres actually a modified black 97 5-speed SE in my town for sale but they want way too much $$ because they've put a lot into it.

You should get a G-tech if you can never make it to the track... Perfect device for all of the time 0-60 times, and 1/4 mile times.....
On a second note... I don't understand why so many people are getting so hyped up about the chirp??? I spin 2nd, and chirp 3rd.........

i would use my friends Gtech but my cigarette lighter is completely broken out of the dash piece and missing from the previous owner aswell as the fact that i cut up the power and ground from it to wire up my summit RPM switch

Joos,
finally got a minute to look at the vid, that is sweet. I especially like the second half - car disappears, but the sound doesn't, you hear it turn around, you know its coming....
Would have been even better if the car had just gone screaming over the camera on the way back, at about a buck-twenty. Of course I'd never have the nerve to do it with my camera, but it would have looked great on yours.

BUT.... there's always a first time

about the running over the camera thing.... I personally am not that stupid to run it over. ALTHOUGH, the first time i did that long run down the road going out of the distance of the camera a telephone companys truck came down the road and i saw them come as i was comming back cringing in fear that they ran it over sense its so small people prolly wouldnt see it. When i got there to see the camera was just fine but turned itself off so i watched the replay on it and it only recorded my first gear then shut off for some reason, i was really hoping to see how close the truck came. Biglou i can get some pics for you tomorrow but its dark now, also if your thinking about that for your 96 idk if you still have the 96 bumper but it looks differnt behind there. Eckohb has a 95 and he also removed his foglights like i did so if anything i can get pics of his aswell.

Cant wait to gut it out and run! DANG i better win the lotto or somthing before this weekend so i can go to the track.

So, cheers, cause your car's faster than the mags say it is ..even if it is stock...
BTW, I hate auto, I timed my car, and its almost a whole second slower. Guess I need to save up for that y-pipe
You LUCKY Wisonsin people. Down here in Illinois-Metro Chicago, you got too much and

PS: You suck for not getting those exhaust clips to me!

lol, well truth is i DO have a tripod but if you think about it in the middle of no where would you really want to drive away from a camera thats setup in the middle of the road on a tripod? If somone comes along while im a mile down the road i cant see it and somone will think WTF somone prolly forgot there camera or somthing and take it. Even though its the middle of no where i still think its not to safe so i just choose to put it on the ground where no one can see it. ill have to redo all those exhaust clips that are in the sticky somtime and repost them as a differnt link
