Clutch

Cjanik

ive been driving a manual for about 5 years, and i still dont have the smoothest shifts.

so dont worry about making that happen.

biggest thing that works for me is when i get out of 1st, shift to second, by time i release the clutch again, the rpm's from first gear should drop a couple thousand RPM and match up with second gear no problem.

if it doesnt match (rpm's raise a bit or drop a bit) then your shifting too fast or too slow, unless you are purposely trying to slip the clutch a little to slow down/speed up faster.
