So What's Your Favorite Pull?
Thought this might be interesting. Was wondering what everyone's favorite pull range was? This is more for the MT guys, but AT guys are welcome as well. Hopefully this isn't on the border-line of "race" discussion? Let's assume on-ramp to free-way pulls only here...;)
As for me, it's the 40-70mph. It's brief, but that's quite alright. It's the range that most accurately and properly is directly proportional to the number of :eek: 's I get. |
It's such a common thing here, I'm at peace with it. Let the flammers get their gratification they wouldn't other wise get in the real world. If it makes them feel important, I'll go with it...
It's just a question, nothing more. I welcome SoonerFan's cult... |
For me it's anything in 2,3,4, from around 3.5K RPMs the redline. I don;t do it often, but I love the feel of it.
|
i love second gear at 40-60mph... that pull is just freakin addicting... then again 3rd and 4th are pretty nice on the highway too.. lol
|
2nd & 3rd from 3,500rpm to the limiter.

Mine Is on 1st gear from 20 to 40mph. This thing pulls hard!

after installing my 00VI, i would have to say 2nd gear pull :D
|
the 3.5ers must be having a blast...I'm extremely happy with anytime on first gear, just doesnt last long....2nd gear redline feels great too. When I HAD boost, a down shift into 3rd gear around 4k rpm to redline was orgasmic
|
Does anyone else feel guilty after a pull or is it just me? Don't get me wrong, I love it...I just feel like I'm abusive. However, I am reassured due to VQ-dependability.
|
Definitely 60-90 in 4th, while blowing by other cars on the freeway. It pulls good while not feeling abusive to the car.
|
I agree both with MIK3 and vinco.... i feel abusive to it but hell, thats why i make those payments. And 4th gear is great on the highway!!!

My favorite pull would be either 2nd or 3rd, 3k-6.4k |

What's fun about having a VQ if you can't 'redline' it? :jeffy:
|
This is where i reallf wish i had a manual :(....and a vq35 :(....but my favorite "pull" is first gear 15-40/45 mph....it happens so fast that the riced out honda doesn't even know what hit him :)

and i like first.. but my tires suck and if they dont break lose at the start then they start to brake from 4500+,,.. so second gear to redline gets my vote 3.5 6mt FTW |
1st is a beast from a roll haha it jumps so quick. but my favorite is a 2nd gear roll

I'll post once the new engine is in.....
|
^ Looking forward to that post.
I am also looking forward to the difference a lighter-wheel/tire combo, Illumina/H-tech and lightweight UDP will make in throttle response/pull. |

anyways as an update, i'm paying krrz350 for my engine tomorrow. I have the crank, rods(maybe), valves, valve springs, shims, throttle body, piston rings all ordered and on the way. gonna pm grey99 about the IM and cams this project is coming along a thread will be started and I decided to not be a meanie and tell everyone my secrets about this engine all they need to do is ask the right questions. :D |
my favorite pull = 6th all the way to my 7100rpm limiter
:wall: |
:spit::bs:;)
|
6th gear pull ftw! No actually its more of a 6th gear push LOL
3rd gear pull merging on the highway is probably my favorite thing about having a 6mt with headers :D I wish I could do the same in 2nd but I fear the 3rd gear crunch :( |
mine is the 3rd gear pull shifting from 2nd, love the sound of berk intakes WOT 4k-6k..
|
|
2nd to 3rd 6000k
