Gear Shifting

[RME1]

A weird thing that i find about the 1zz box though...it seems to shift smoother when punching it, especially under high revs ;)

Yep, seconded :)

Lol cheers man. Toyota is part of the reason that we sportivo drivers crunch from 1st to 2nd sometimes.

Hmm...you just gave me an idea actually...

yeah i find it abit hard shifting to reverse aswell...especially when i just start the car i put it into reverse and i hear this crunch..is that normal cause i dont like the sound of it seems like im not shifting properly even though the clutch is all the way in....

Also when you sportivo guys drive...at what RPM do use normally change gears....

i normally change between 2-3 cause i dont like the car screeming all the time even though seems like the lift is about to kick in or something....

i shift at 3500-4000rpm if iam just cruising

yeah 3000-4000rpm for daily driving, any lower car doesnt feel right. Plus i find that the gears are smoother to go in at those revs then say 2500rpm.

take to 4, it is a high reving car, rev it high.

but does it start screeming at you at 3000-4000rpm or just normal....?

[SPTIVO_LUVA]

lol, screaming starts at like at like over 5 if not more, 4 grand is normal dude, you get more out of each gear and you car if you change at 4, change at like 2.5 and you will feel like ur driving a slug.

[Suprathai]

Normal commuting I usually change at 2.5-3Krpm, a bit more spirited I change between 3.5-4.5Krpm. Anything pass that I go to the redline...
