Yeah.. ive been driving stick for years now.

And my foot has never caused chatter in any other car lol...

I'd put money down that its more NISSAN than me. When majority of people are having the same symptoms im willing to bet its more than just the driver.

Regardless, i love the car, just wasn't expecting to have a VEHICLE that tells me how to drive it.

I suppose i can learn

I hope you see that I am saying it is Nissan and not you. I am simply stating that you will learn how to drive these cars to avoid that chatter.

This shouldn't be surprising... I've never owned two cars that have driven the same. Nothing bad will happen with the chatter (that has been documented) but if you want to avoid the noise, you need to modify your driving style a bit.
