I didn't think so. I have an S5 FC and redline that shit every day! Never had any problems! Took it way past 8k before and it never cut off suprisingly. FC's 4 life friend!
@SomasTube i'm a post 8grand virgin with mine I must admit but I redline it at least once a week, gotta get my fix. I've heard "one redline a day keeps the rebuild away," perhaps your car is physical evidence of that
sounds ok, i like straight piped rotary! anyways maybe its because i learned racing a truck how to drive a stick but my shifts are like 10000 times faster in my 88 b-port and you need to shift higher sounds like your shifting at like 6500
i can shift at the rev limiter if i wanted to at the end of the tach where it reads 8k all they way up to 3rd gear, 4th gear realy is just straining the motor to hit the rev limit
Did you even take it to the redline?

Nope only mid rpm range like 4-5k rpm , redline starts at 7k and cuts out at 8k

ah wait i meant kmh lol. how quick is the 0-60?
Gruelius 3 years ago
I have no idea what 60 kmh is , but if just first gear thats about 2.5 seconds.
Going through first and 2nd gear will take about 6 - 6.5 seconds
