well, is it just me or that any other ITR out there can shift back to neutral at 2500RPM without steping on the clutch?

will it harm my transmission if i do that often?

If this is not something that is ment to do wuz wrong with it...
I am talking about if i step on the gas and match to rpm to 2500 then i can shift from any gear back to neutral without steping on the clutch... interesting....

 

It can't be good, I can tell you that much.

 

Does it do it just after you let off the gas? If so that is normal.

 

I don't think its too bad...you can technially shift gears without hitting the clutch if you rev match

 

yeah
at 2500rpm right when i let go of the gas
i can shift the gear back to neutral smoothly

so u guys think its normal and whon't harm the car????

 

It won't hurt the car unless you start jamming gears together...

Edit: I agree that it will create more wear, but it won't create a ton of wear at all...
Personally...I use the clutch...less things to break...

icic

but why can you shift a gear into neutral w/out stepping on the clutch at certain rpm???????? sorry for this noob question

 

yes.. that creates more wear.. so use clutch pedal everytime you shift

Im a Honda Tech, we get the same question out of alot of people. They will be driving along with their hand on the shifter and they let off the gas and it "pops" out of gear. it really does not hurt or wear anything out. I do not recommend going out and doing it everytime, but just try not to do it.

 

It's fine.

I do this a lot. I can also go from 5-4, 4-3 without using the clutch, and you'd never know by riding in the car. 3-2 is a little harder.

If it feels smooth, don't worry. If you're forcefully popping it out, worry.

 

oookie
thanks a lot guys~~ ^^
