lol i noticed after I read it over and edited it, but guess you were too fast ;)

Fastest way to shift? Tear open the sides of your steering wheel column and place paddle shifters there :roflpuke2:
I kid, I kid.

Buy a 370Z with the 7AT.

Why do I have to provide ALL the correct answers around here?

Sorry to be the one to tell you, but you were too late.

Yea, you know all about "paddles" don't cha :roflpuke2: :tiphat:

Just ask this chick, paddles own all

Yea baby :yum:

Its all about knowing what rpm the engine should be at in a specific gear. Just like rev match downshifting, you will want to make sure the rpms are in the correct position for the gear during an upshift. If you clutch in, upshift, and clutch out really fast then the shift will probably be jerky because the rpms will most likely be higher than the desired gear. Same think if you clutch in, upshift, and clutch out too slowly...the rpms will be too low causing a jerky shift. Its all about finding a rhythm.

:facepalm:

No way, the paddle girl made it a win.

That's the only thing, that's giving this thread some worth....

Wow geez man I got so much hate im practically in tears lol. Maybe i should have been more specific. I gave an example cuz im not exactly sitting in my car where id 'feel' the right RPM and be able to comment. Maybe i should have gave a timeframe instead ya?

Let's say...im shiftin from 1st to 2nd. It takes rougly 1-1.5secs to push the clutch in, let the RPM fall, and engage 2nd gear smoothly. Somehow i just feel this is too slow. It seems that when i push the cluth in, the RPMs stay as if i had not let the clutch out at all (i think the syncro rev match). In fact, the rpm wont fall until i move the shift lever into 2nd gear....that's when the rpm will drop down and i can engage the clutch.

Does anyone else notice this or just me? If i turn the rev match off the rpms will fall sooner (like a regular manual tranny) and i can shift faster. Does this make sense?

I believe I have every one whipped on that issue!

Whipped, good one!

not hating but i think you should have bought a 370z with an automatic transmission like another forum member has suggested because people who drive a manual regularly don't have this problem.
