I removed all the exhaust pieces, including the shields, so I don't think it's that. Perhaps my front suspension is so low that the tires are rubbing on something. I'll keep y'all posted.<BR/><BR/>Cheers, TimTimKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09059780797709299125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193111756116515621.post-49237674394151997182008-12-02T10:40:00.000-08:002008-12-02T10:40:00.000-08:00Congratulations!2 things. 1.

I'm going out on a limb and guessing you have an exhaust system heat shield that has popped loose and is hanging down.<BR/><BR/>2. Do you have over-rev protection on the motor? It sounds like it spun up pretty high when you were engaging the clutch backing out of the driveway. This should happen less as you get used to the insanely fast no-load motor acceleration and how it feels to shift.<BR/><BR/>(I want to do my civic next!)<BR/><BR/>-ellieElizabeth Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14103217136210380026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193111756116515621.post-47006632317006846372008-12-02T08:59:00.000-08:002008-12-02T08:59:00.000-08:00Congratulations.
