thanks for the welcome guys! Man...i been driving it alot these two days and i'm still not use to driving a stick. I been driving an auto for the last 5yrs so its kind of weird. Anyways..i have a question for you guys. I accidently rev to 4-5k when i was in N today. i was rolling at 45mph and i thought i was in gear so i gave it some gas. The needle jumped to 4-5k. I didn't damage the car right? I remember reading the manual and it said don't rev over 4k during break in =\.

Over revving once in a while will do no harm, doing it all the time or past red line might. I think you're fine.

Welcome to the board.

Yeah, in fact, you'll want to break in part of the upper revs occasionally during the break in period.

Welcome Dereck!

yes, I took mine to the drag stip for those short burst of speed during the break in period. Stay off the hard braking though.
