tunerkid7 · 02-19-2008, 09:11 PM

Ever driven a K20 with normal gearing? I'll tell you this much, even with a stock 03 K20A2 transmission, I barely ever use first gear. It's way too short. I think it taps out at about 15mph.

Trust me, you'll enjoy it.

You'll enjoy it so much, that you should bring it to Import Alliance.

Well, to be honest, it's a car meet first.

It's all about having a good time with other import car enthusiasts.
