Brake Torque. Not the best thing you can do to your car, but much better for it than neutral dropping. Keep it in D or D3, hold the brake in with the left foot. Press the gas with your right foot until the desired rpm level. When the light changes or you get the signal to go or whatever, come off the brake and floor it. I don't know what the best rpm level to do this is, but just remember the higher you go and the longer you hold it, the more damage you're doing to your brakes and torque convertor.


some personal recommendation that will minimize wear/damage:
stay neutral at the starting line, press the brakes down with the left foot as much as you can, rev a little till your brake vacuum kicks in where you'll be able to brake much further and you're set.

go to D (or L) when it is counting down, and floor the pedal (TC/CVT mechanism will prevent you from over revving anyways) and once it is go or the moment just before go, let go of the brakes.
when you're about to red line and it is not shifting (or lol CVT), then shift up to D biggrin.gif

20 minutes as in on the clock face, aka around 1.33 turns from neutral to lock.

Persona MT, Vios J MT, Fiesta MT, Myvi 1.5 SE MT, Almera MT, Mirage MT, CRZ MT, Preve MT.
*
hmm wouldn't that be like 1.6 or something? since 1 + half turn is locking to the 15mins mark

anyways tried the nissan sentra, same, also 1.5 as my iswara, and being a long + fat sedan, the turn radius is theoretically worse lol (only difference is my car being a ton stiffer makes it feel worse)
however on full turn the sentra has its wheels pointing outward more while the iswara not so much. hmm hmm.gif


let's see:
persona rear drum
vios tuih
fiesta hatch
myvi tuih
almera is just full unker and 1 air bag rigid shit
mirage hatch
crz hatch

that leaves me with preve and inspira.
preve on paper specs can't break 200km/h on lol campro
inspira is rated at 202 with its 1.8 NA MIVEC

welp! that leaves me to just inspira again :/

btw anyone know what manual gear box is mated to the inspira 1.8?

CRZ ! but SOHC instead of DOHC... sad.gif
CRZ ~ wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif

SOHC > DOHC IF it produces the same power/torque as the DOHC.

case in point, new civic vs the old fd2 civics.

QUOTE(dares @ Aug 24 2013, 11:45 PM)
It depends on the steering rack ratio as well. Even though the Fiesta steering lock-to-lock is less than a Saga, the car's turning radius is more or less the same as the Saga. That means I don't need to spin the Fiesta steering as much as the Saga to get the same amount of turn in angle.

If your steering lock-to-lock is same as Fiesta but steering rack ratio is same Saga, then gg.com  icon_question.gif

There are other factors also eg. track width, wheelbase etc.

yeah, more headache to ponder with sweat.gif

i am thinking to change to 14incher in order to achieve better FC and NVH. Need to get rid of good-in-dry-only M5 also. I might trade off the handling as the sidewall of the tire will be bigger, but I drive slow slow oni, even some lady drivers are faster than me.

or consider keeping the rims and go for yokohama Advan DB rolleyes.gif

more is better? (if so why is lancer gt boasting their 5m when "standard" is like 5.5)
