Message	The 6th gear in an RSX type S is equivalent to the 5th gear in a non-type S, so you end up getting higher in the powerband in the other gears quicker. It's not just the same first five gear ratios plus an extra. "I was previously a aviation mechanic and avionic technician and this car is harder to work on than Aircraft." - Hocuz77 03:04:56 02/28/06
