gearing
Really think about it. Does or car blow through the RED line in TOP ? If it does, u need higher gearing. Or can use higher gearing, not the same thing. If u can't PULL the red line in top...definitely not ! Nothing kills the Fun 2 Drive factor in any vehicle car or bike faster than having 2 longer l...

difficulty downshifting 5 speed
We have had our 89 Eunos 4 a few years now and it does not like downshifting from 5 -4 . There is no damage 2 it, we r clutching properly, it just sort of locks itself out of 4th. Has any 1 else got/had this problem ? What did u do about it ? I rekon something needs a kiss with a grinder at the gate...
