It really isn't that bad to break with your engine as long as you don't go in first gear with it just take it down to second and you'll be fine in fact it is good to break with your engine because it gets all of the carbon off.
@arthurx333 breaking with the engine isn't a bad thing. Ever hear of warped rotors? Know what causes that? You have obviously never owned a car for more than 100,000 miles. Glad I'm not paying for YOUR breaks? LOL
@arthurx333 Braking with the engine is not "stupid." It causes no damage to the engine and saves brakes. That is the most ignorant comment I have read in a long time. Large trucks brake with their engine primarily, to prevent their brakes from overheating and failing, because it doesnt hurt the engine. You are "stupid" for thinking you know it all.
@MrAjhill80 wears out the pistons rod camshaft springs retainers transmisson gears clutch driveshaft basically the WHOLE drivetrain but mainly the rod bearing, were not talking about big rigs here,18 wheelers have engine braking so they dont kill their brakes in one downhill run,but guess what,after a while the engine braking wears off and gotta rebuild which costs thousands instead of hundreds 4 the brake pads and rotors.and i never said i know it all you pulled that out of your ass
@MrAjhill80 if you keep your car in gear while slowing down, it will not DRASTICALLY kill your drivetrain but this video shows the guy doing it at high rpm which bends the rod, not counting the clutch hes burning from not rev matching the gears but just releasing the clutch. who are you anyway you havent said one logical sentence about this subject you should at least do some research before you keyboard badass the internet and argue with a mechanic of 22 year experience
Hard to tell without any real data but with a gutted interior and considering the 96-2005 cb600s were about 100bhp thats a bit of a leap from the stock 1.0L metro's 49bhp. Still would be pretty fun to track since thats what it was built for.
@mcc78405 it sounds fast but its not. i would know the stock is faster, i own one of these cars. so yea its a little dumb, but you gotta agree it was creative i actually planed on doing this.
yes, for every 100lbs you lose... you gain 1/10 of a second accel time... and your horse power per ton goes up... there is a reason race cars dont have a/c, dashboards, and passenger seats. A stripped down car puts alot less weight on the engine/tranny therefor allowing it to accelerate faster, brake easier, and corner harder.
I call it broke-speed... you can cut your 1/4mile time by 2 full seconds if you strip a wrx down to bare metal.
Im pretty sure this is the metro gnome in the making.... same color and instrument panal

if that was a newer 600 you could turbo it and put about 200 hp out of that motor, then gear it for more torque, you'd have a a super geo
