Thinking about it will make it worse, trust me.

I remember stalling at an intersection (not many cars), but was so embarrassed that I took off and shifted 1-2-3 the best I ever had, because I wasn't thinking about it.








My first manual (10yrs ago) I stalled it probably 12 times in the first 3 days. I made my friend drive behind me when I had to go to work so that people wouldn't bitch/see me.

Didn't really stall it much after that.

Then I got the Z... such a different feel that I stalled it several times the first few days too. I constantly catch myself almost stalling, or not shifting perfect (herky jerky feeling) still too.
remove the clutch helper spring, it really helps out alot, i was the same way until i removed the spring, now i have nothing but smooth shifts
