Howdy,
I just have a few things I'm curious about. I got the 2014 370z Base without the rev matching crud which actually would upshift better than me so I have no say. 2 things, why does it take so long for the rpms to go down in a upshift (I'm fine on downshifts, no problems there). Its only a fraction of a second if not a second but if shift normally, the rpms would be about 200, 300 rpms over during a regular upshift (not stomping the car), and make the car jump when i let go, and thats being easy on the clutch. If i wait a little longer for the rpms to come down to match the gear then its no problem but why so long? Maybe I'm use to my old car. Also, when shifting gears i understand this being a rear wheel drive, the tranny is right underneath the center console, but most of the time i shift, you can hear the clicking sound of the synchronizers disenaging and engaging gear to gear each shift. Sometimes i can get it quiet. But is that normal to hear the transmission engage in a RWD? A FWD i never hear anything cause the tranny is in the engine bay so maybe im being picky. But them synchros seem like it varies by how hard it clicks into the next gear. Is there a way to adjust the clutch pedal to ease the pressure a little bit? Like an old cable clutch type transmission you can tighten and loosen the tension as needed. Sorry for all the weird questions, expect more to come Last edited by Akurei; 04-10-2014 at 07:33 PM. |
