i take my SS lude from 1st gear too like 25mph and then 2nd till like 65mph or so, feels like its doin this in 6 or so seconds, fast as hell too feel anyway. i also sometimes will be in regular automatic mode going like 45mph, i can drop it too 2nd and zoom from 45mph too 65mph or so fast as ****. my rpms geting up too like 6500 or so . would keep doing this really wear the crap out of engine and tranny or is this fine too do? i figured tranny all computerized and if it was bad it wouldnt let me do it. i just did it a few times, but so fun.. zoom zoom =) lemme know thanks

...by 3rd gear i'm hittin 115...

Bought 1999 Prelude in November 1998:
43,XXX miles

 

[joedaddy]

seriously, don't you guys think the transmission got a little smoother with age?
I feel like the shifting is so much smoother and stuff...I drain the ATF every 15,000 miles or so during a oil change... and i think that helps it a lot

------------------

 

[SSAccuracy]

no doubt, the sporshift is much more liquid when shifting. I want to feel the difference soon when i put the Apexi or Fields controller on...Dan...hehe

 

[Lude2k]

After I put my mugen exhaust on, the shifts felt great also I think changing the ATF helped

I have 89k with my SS and am running on my 3rd transmission. I knew my first tranny replacement was due to manufacturer's defect, my 2nd tranny made squeaking noise after a 30k or so.
I am now having another problem with my tranny, my shifter is stuck at N so I could not shift up to R and P. I'm not sure if it's the tranny or other things that is causing this.

Anyways, I'll bring my car to the dealer sometime this week for answers.

I agree. I have found that my SS is much smoother now, then when I bought it. I only have 6,000miles, but when I bought the car, I thought the SS sucked, but now I'm pretty happy with. I drive it hard all the time.

Yeah, you should be fine. I have a 98 with 44k miles and drive it hard and havn't had any problems yet. I have noticed that it has smoothed out with more miles.
