BulletInjection Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 I learned in 30 seconds in someones Acura RSX-S. Did not stall it once.

Linkster Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 I was never really big into Manual's. I still prefer an Auto for a Daily Driver. You are going to HATE life learning how to drive a manual. But when you get it all figured out, its like riding a bike. Started on a Geo Metro, went to an EVO 9 MR and then a 400whp Eclipse. Evo was insanely easy to drive. Geo was a bitch because it had no torque. The Eclipse is what I really learned on. ACT2600 with a Lightweight Flywheel and a really big Snail under the hood. Like Michigancapri said, the thing is like an on/off switch. Take your time and get used to it! E38 7-Series Project: The VIP Room
Ford302Redneck Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Practice makes perfect. I've been driving manuals for over 10 years. I'm only 22, but growing up on tractors, and 4 wheelers. Your username fits you LOL Why wouldn't it? I'm not false claiming. Just how I was raised. Doesn't mean I'm stupid cause I'm country.

Ford302Redneck Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Lucky you have a light weight clutch. My Mustang's clutch use to be hell. Pressure plate springs locked up or something. I HATED driving it, only one I had at the time. It was/is the hardest clutch I've ever came across. Even had plenty of people agree. I drove it that way for almost 6 months. I hated stoplights,stop signs, anything I had to stop for. But actually manual cars are safer to drive than autos. Its way harder to text and driver with no hands. Lol.
michigancapri92 Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 ^^^^^^^ only problem with lightweight is if it gets hot it warps, i burned up 3 clutches because i kept getting the next step stronger and finally just got the drag racing clutch good for 600HP/tourque when they would slip like a bitch they would overheat the alluminum and warp it but it is nice, stock flywheel is 36LBS lightweight one is about 6 lol Teamcapri.comThe TeamCapri 1992 Mercury Capri XR22012 FORD EDGE SQ BUILDOld build logMy FeedBack1992 Mercury capri XR2 Hyper LED
