Braking too hard = Just damaging the brakes
Accelerating too hard = Just putting large amount of stress on your motor.

But Hondas were meant to be revved into the 5000 zone

Well I can relate. I had a problem with my civic, and it was to do with the brakes. I would get a bad grinding noise (as if the brake pads were completely gone). It was because I accelerated too fast, and then jammed on the brakes and then accelerated fast again. (Hot rodding it). It was because i liked sliding around corners, and it wrecked the brakes. Honda covered it under warranty (happened like 3 mths after i got it)
