Approaching 80k miles, 5th is a little notchy now, but that's the only issue. Now in the old 1g/2g yeah their trans feel horrible too, but the Evo's a different animal.
Whats up John ,
I'm not doubting the evo's transmissions strength......I just don't like how they shift. I agree that the Evo shifts better than the 1g/2g dsm, but not good enough to make me want to drive one fast. Don't get me wrong, i think the evo is a great car. I just dont like the shifter. I drove an sti and thought it was a bit more pleasurable to shift. Question is:
Can the evo be made to shift like a honda?
