So just to chime in here, back in highschool, first car, '87 Maxima Auto, i used to N drop ALL DAY LONG.

Not sure what kind of transmission was in there, but dayuum, the only thing that killed the car, was redlining without proper lubrication = rod through the block.

Transmission still held up. AND, AND, get this, i bough the car @ 202k miles, put maybe 18k more on it, before its demise.

What a great car that was. Rotted rear fenders, pull back seat cushions see the tires - bent rear something or other, got mad chamber filling back seat with three kids and going off roading .

Did i mention the automatic seat belts that rolled up the pillars into position! Best feature ever... why don't we see these anymore??

I also remember a few times, before its end of days, pulling the bumper right up against a light post concrete barrier at the mall (front wheel drive), and just flooring it. Somehow the tires went bald, lots of white smoke!

.. Anyways to get back on topic, Don't N drop your ride
