Depends how cheap

The newer ones apparently are more adjustable so I might try the clutch spring mod while saving up for a new pedal

Yeah, my insurance has taken possession of it already lol. It was at McGann and Chester if you want to go look for it, grab my Ark exhaust while you're at it too

I agree the stock clutch is trash, and especially terrible with the stop and go traffic/hills in Pittsburgh.

based on where i live/drive i would hate a stick since i do summer daily the Z. i take a good bit of backroads which are all hills.

plus the 7AT shifts hard and responsive. it was leaps and bounds better than any other non-dct AT i 've driven so i went that way.

Yeah the smarter decision, considering where we live, would've been to get an automatic

Too bad I'm not smart
