Antonee 6th Gear December 21, 2014 Share December 21, 2014 (edited) My last 6speed manual car, 1>3>5>6 if the road ahead is free from traffic. What car u drove? You must be revving a lot RPMs to reach the next higher gear shift. FD2R ? Edited December 21, 2014 by Antonee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaronlkl Supersonic December 21, 2014 Share December 21, 2014 Manual car drivers should practice advance driving technique such as Heel-and-toe shifting and flat shifting(Power shifting) to maximise the performance of the car. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangadrool Supersonic December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 don't need lah. I purposely shift slowly like driving those old Leyland bus.

Strudel- 1st Gear December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 Erm if you're lazy to change gear that often, its quite common mah. I used to shift 1-3 quite a lot. You dont need a lot of rev to do that too... maybe 4000rpm? Redline for my old car was 8000 so its not really high mah. Launching at over 7000rpm then is high. Hahaha. What car u drove?

Antonee 6th Gear December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 Then again, jumping gears will lack of the previous gear momentum.. also our driving school never teach us abt jumping gears. (Where i also think part of the members here are p platers or still in learning phases) Erm if you're lazy to change gear that often, its quite common mah. I used to shift 1-3 quite a lot.

Nzy Twincharged December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 (edited) What car u drove? You must be revving a lot RPMs to reach the next higher gear shift. FD2R ? Don't need to rev too high. In my car also can skip from 1 to 3. Even if I rev till 2.5k rpm and change to 3rd, the rpm drop to 1.5k rpm but still can accelerate quite briskly.

Aaronlkl Supersonic December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 (edited) What is power-shifting just in case you wonders... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHaVoSnzymQ This guy definitely out-shifted a traditional Torque Converter autobox in manual mode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv791ac2bmE Edited December 22, 2014 by Aaronlkl 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 (edited) more zen like.... Feel the clutch, the gear stick, the shift, imagine the disengaging and engaging of gears.... look at the scenery. No need to rush one. rush rush rush... next traffic light is like 500m away also. It's actually very enjoyable to drive within speed limits, and not above speed limits. How much time can you save? Well, for longer journey maybe 10 mins faster, for shorter distance, maybe the one who drive slower (less rushed) arrives earlier. If I wanna drive fast, I would have gotten an automatic already. But that sucks!!! Just tekan the throttle and brakes, with minimal control at your helm. May I know why u do that Edited December 22, 2014 by Kangadrool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaronlkl Supersonic December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 (edited) for shorter distance, maybe the one who drive slower (less rushed) arrives earlier. Wow.. how u do that? If I wanna drive fast, I would have gotten an automatic already. But that sucks!!! Just tekan the throttle and brakes, with minimal control at your helm. Bro, what makes u feel automatic (except dual-clutch gb) is faster? Edited December 22, 2014 by Aaronlkl 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 (edited) I have seen so many kancheong spiders cut here cut there, in the end they arrive when I arrive. Sometimes, they get caught by traffic for being impatient. They could have been faster if they stick to the lane and follow the flow. Automatic, yes even 4-speed AT by Toyota, gives tremendous acceleration feel when you work the throttle a bit harder than usual. In no time, you will exceed speed limits. For the average drivers, automatic is faster to drive. Wow.. how u do that? Bro, what makes u feel automatic (except dual-clutch gb) is faster?

Nzy Twincharged December 22, 2014 Share December 22, 2014 (edited) Wow.. how u do that? Its normal. When I drive normally, I always meet the cars that were weaving in and out of traffic at the next traffic light anyway cuz sometimes they weave in and out and get stuck behind a slower car. Lol.
