    I mean, it is hard to turn the steering wheel. Mine is a 02 model. It was not like this. The first time I noted this was when I was driving it, and it suddenly lost a lot of the steering power. I checked the fluid and the tension of belts. Both seem to be okay. I went to some auto service, they...

    Shock after shift from 1st gear to the 2nd.

    The jerk happens when I release the clutch and (I think) when the two parts join each other. I found the reason: the rpm drops so slowly after I release the gas pedal.

    Want to practice heel-and-toe on my p5

    Want to practice heel-and-toe on my p5

    Could I change tires to a different size?

    Need to change tires. Find the local firestones have no such size (195 50 16). But my neighbour has a new pair of Dunlop Sport SP5000 for $80. But the size is 195 55 16. The 5%*195=1cm difference of the outer radius. I understand that this will lead to some toque looseing. But is it okay to...
