There you have it.:tup:

Downshifting is one thing, doing it properly is the other. It's pet peeve to see someone jam the shifter into a lower gear without rev matching. We're talking several thousand RPM jump. So I've decided not to let anyone test my car if they can't rev match when downshifting. I have SRM, but decided to turn it off in case people freak out over it, but I'll probably leave it on for them. [shrugs]

Plus, I rather not coast in neutral and to keep it in gear for emergencies.

I will continue to downshift...i didnt my a manual for nothing! Maybe I will feel different when I hav to cough up a lung to replace the tranny, but until then:driving:

I let a friend drive my Z, and put SRM on. Freaked him out when he wiggled the stick in neutral at 45 mph. Ndont know what he was doing but I think it saved a transmission

Might not me true if they have the Spec-V brakes:rofl2:, saw an article that said it was a $50k option! :eek:

Not sure if this is accurate or if it is for the total Spec-V package but either way that's a crazy expensive option!

Same here and love it!:tup: But these guys are all talking about the A7 tranny not the M6....

Man if downshifting was bad, I would sell my Z.

I think I prefer downshifting than speeding up lol

Cars come in women's auto? :stirthepot: :p

granny shifting, not double clutching like you should.

amen, couldn't have said it better myself. as long as you know what you're doing and you do it correctly, downshifting is not bad

193000 miles on a stock 350z (fully factory no mods) tranny and has canyon runs. Never blew anything on that car. Your statement is inavlid. Unless ofcourse you don't know what you are doing.

This is the silliest thread I've seen in a while.

Agreed, its a car drive it. I would be more worried about your brake light bulbs burning out if you use the brakes to much, thus downshift as much as you can.
