Are you guys always turn on SynchoRevmatch on daily driving?

obito · 09-10-2012, 12:38 AM

I just wonder that do people always turn on the Syncho Revmatch while daily drive or it just need to be turn on during racing. I Love to turn it on, but I dont sure is that gonna make more damage to my tranmission If I turn it on all the time and is it waste a lot of gas?

short answer would be that the feature if anything is supposed to help prolong the life of the clutch and yes i leave it on for daily driving all the time with no impact on fuel economy.

If the wife is with me and shes tired, I have it on. But usually, I have it off most of the time. It keeps your skills in check.

so it dont stay on unless you manually turn it off? I thought i read on a thread here somewhere that its engaged once turned on even if you shutdown or start the car.

I leave it on all the time (as I do for VDC on the street) until the week before a track session when I turn it off so I can practise heel/toe in daily driving to refresh the muscle memory.

This.

Leave it on. It'll help preserve the clutch.

It really does nothing more then a better job of a human bliping the throttle: no damage, no risk, no wasted fuel.

I have never turned mine off. Ever. Our Z is very happy.

if you have a manual, LEAVE IT ON. it saves the clutch massive wear. i have 95k on the odo now and it pulls just as hard as it did on day one. the gas burned by revving up is very tiny

TheGreatOne · 09-10-2012, 09:10 AM

On all the time

Plus my downshifts sound way more aggressive with it on lol.

red6spd · 09-10-2012, 09:39 AM

I only turn it off so I can remember what its like to drive a stick without this feature. Remember it works on up shifts as well as down.

I remembers your setting. If you turn it off, it stays off. If you leave it on, it stays on.

I always leave mine on too.

KSFastah · 09-10-2012, 10:01 AM

I leave it off all the time....I prefer to do the rev matching myself. It's second nature to me.

ImportConvert · 09-10-2012, 11:37 AM

I leave it on. I paid for it.

houkouonchi · 09-10-2012, 11:42 AM

I leave it off except when I am at the track. Honestly not a huge difference in smoothness when I do it myself vs leave it on so I doubt its makings a huge difference for me in clutch wear.

I leave it on all the time. Helps me downshift like a pro!
