how do you break 2nd and 3rd gear? i don’t know much about subarus but in the SHO world you can’t break gears in a tranny from shifting hard unless your 350+WHP, was he grinding them or what? modded? ---

> [@ghettostyleTA](#): > > that sucks… how do you break that?? Subys have “glass transmissions” or so they say. If you aren’t a douche about driving them, then they hold up just fine. This guy was probably doing some 5 launches and shifting like a gorilla. You can get away with that on a T5 tranmission in a Mustang. The WRX is another story. ---

yea. he also called me halfway from his home in VA and this was our conversation, “what kind of mileage were you getting?” -i said like 18-23 if i was lucky, on the highway. “oh, well im getting like 110-150 miles to a tank of gas” -so that means your gettin less than 12 miles a gallon. “yea” -so your driving 110-120 on the hhighway, consistantly “yea” -there you go…dont expect anyhting less. ---
