there was a couple of times I accidently pushed my a/t into N and the rev just went 'weee wee weee' at the cut-off point.
I hope no damage was done...only a couple times on the freeway.

6spd cuts off at 7300 RPM.
If you spend the $500 on stiffer valve-springs and titanium retainers... you valve won't drop in.
The problem is valve-float at high rpms... OR the retainer cracks and the valve drops.
FYI... the B18C motors (94-2000 GSR) had dual valve-springs on the intake side. Motor would not crack till 9K RPMS.

STiffer valve=springs or rods or retainers will not help on a mis-shift. This guy on that post said the replacement valvesprings which look the same to me and no thicker. ITts these idiots that mis-shift need to learn how to shift the car right.

Acura should be relieved of any responsibility for less than able drivers mis-shifting. If ya can't drive a stick, get a base model with auto or a tricycle!
