DROVE a 95 HONDA ACCORD stick for first time...can't wait for my conversion!!!

man, all this time besides valet parking, i have been driving my friend's 94 corolla 5 speed which has no power...it's so hard starting 1st gear with such a weak car....now today i drive my other friend's honda accord stick with more power and it was awesome...he also has an intake but wow, car was loud and fast...errrr....and maxima's are even stronger so I can't wait to get my baby 5 speed...ahhhh it's over man! And i just realized that 5 speeds on strong cars like honda's and maxima's are a big tease...i'm here on the high way going like 60 mph only on 3rd gear...made me so mad...i wanted to throw that bad boy in 4th but couldn't cause i was going to slow and it would have been driving real weak....and all these guys in front of me were holding up traffic...jUST A BIG TEASE I TELL YOU!!!! But that's my experience and now i want my 5 speed more than ever!

found 99 trans for 500 dollars wit 1 year warranty! But didn't see car and couldn't find out mileage....is it worth it...i think so but what your feedbacks...man...cna't wait till summer!

man, you're driving a 7-year old car. Obviously, you are not loaded with cash. Why would you want to do a conversion on your otherwise fine car? Out of things to do-then you can sell your car and buy a 5spd.
