      Just to clear this up, so you change from 3rd to 2nd at 6500rpm?

          I'd toss a compression gauge on it and see what happened. You could be lucky

              i mean, you could have atleast blipped the gas.

              shit, i dont even down shift into 2nd unless im at 25mph or under. and i always double clutch it!

                  Dude wil you shut up? Nobody cares how much of a bad driver you are.
                  The OP admitted his mistake thoroughly that he money shifted not down shifting and is asking for advice

                      He missed shifted-third to second instead of third to fourth.

                              Exactly, commonly known as a money shift, not simple downshifting.

                                  Yeah that was my next step. Gonna do it on Monday when I throw the new drive shaft on.

                                  Ill keep you guys updated and throw up some pics in the future.

                                  Some past cars of mine have been:

                                  1985 VW Golf Diesel recently died post 300k, my pickup truck
                                  1994 Miata with a megasquirtpnp, garret gt2560r, custom fmic, 6 speed, torsen lsd, 2200lbs/260whp = fun
                                  2005 mazda rx8 which frankly was about as slow as the golf but handled like a cat on velcro
                                  1990 Merc 300TE wagon, awesome cruiser

                                          That is an unfortunate welcome into the E30 world. However, once you begin to repair the damage, you [I]will[I] become addicted!

                                          I have heard that with a turbo the RX8 would be an absolutely fantastic car, the power, or lack there of, being the only thing holding it back.

                                              Yep that is true. Though with a LS motor being only a bit heavier than a rotary and vastly more reliable id be much more tempted to do that.





                                              No motor pics for the moment.
