But 2-3 shift has always been "up" for me...
BTW... if manuals were obsolete and inferior to the 7at technology, then why is the Nismo only available in 6MT??? Anniversary edition? Seems like Nissan has a soft spot for the old dead technology. |
I thought for go karts down is upshift...?
Probably because they figured that the people who spring for the Nismo model will also be the people for whom operating a clutch pedal is an essential part of driving (never mind all that steering, braking, and accelerating...).
In short, qualia. For some that trumps raw performance.
What would have been interesting is if they had offered the Nismo with the GT-R trans... would have driven up the price too much tho'.
