Upgrades? Holy crap mang, you must be going through gearsets like BFG Radial T/A's on a pony car. What do you estimate your bhp at?

to the slushboxes. Sorry, I am incredibly biased on this one, and I don't really know why. Just don't feel like I'm not really driving without a clutch pedal. Driving fast with an automatic is almost like using a remote control car to me. It's "faster, slower. left, right" in my mind instead of things like "little more throttle to settle the rear end" and "blip-downshift to second to get more bite up front." Just ain't the same. Poop on reliability.

Haha, yeah, he already flamed me for some comments on a MT vs. 4EAT thread on nasioc. I told him I couldn't really spout numbers to prove superiority of sticks, it is just a mental thing. I hate gadgets that allow us to be less in control of our vehicles. Automatics contribute to the mentality that we don't have to give 100% of our mental resources to the task of everyday driving.
