I know, but what I am saying is that if your in to high of a gear, say 5th and wanna go 30mph, its just gunna keep nailing the gas until it is able to match speed, until you are WOT and still not accelerating.

Manual cars can have cruise control!
And I don't think it was standard in '84 either. Correct me if I am wrong. It was standard on the "es" and my parts car has cruise control with manual tranny! ;)Comment

The PO of my car used all OEM parts to install cruise control. It can be done, but it's not cheap.

thanks guys
BTW Ken, I pulled the speakers, A/D/S 300is is the model
the tweeters are cracked on both from the sun (didn't know that) but they still sound as good as my alpines, so I dont' really care as the large driver is still in great shape.
the damn things even had a switch and a fuse, which I am guessing is the crossover...Comment
