I'm Stalling! (sometimes)

The Z is the first manual car I have owned and it took some getting used to. I had driven other cars with MTs before but the hardest aspect of learning on the Z is that the clutch has a very high engagement point which makes it difficult to modulate how the clutch grabs.

I find the easiest rpm to be at when starting from a stop is around 1,500rpm while simultaneously feathering the throttle. You will get the hang of it, it may take a couple thousand miles but I am now proficient at heel toe downshifts and shifting in all situations to the point where it is almost second nature and that took 3,000 miles of driving.
