I dunno. I've known a few people with Integras and Civics that drop the clutch and lay rubber that never had problems of any sort except short tire and clutch life.

Tons of ricers break their FWD Hondas this way. I destroyed the (open) diff in '94 Civic and the 1-3 synchros by shifting that way. A friend of mine has a Honda repair shop, and he always has an Integra or a Prelude with a trashed transmission in for repair. And the broken cars are always riced out and some of them still have their 1/4 times on their windshields from the drag strip.

OT but also relevant, there are way more Integras, Civics and Preludes with blown engines from mis-shifts and overrevs than S2000s.
