How to treat your tranny

Ventruck · 08-31-2016, 01:38 AM

Iono man, was told I was granny shifting and not double clutching like I should, that I was lucky I didn't blow the intake welds, and that I never had Dom — I never had my car.

With NOS in play I imposed danger to manifold and the floor board of my passenger side flew from under me

not too sure about holding the car on a steep incline with the ebrake. Z's ebrake doesn't hold the car too well on steep incline.

If hills are frequent, try the adjustment in-car if you haven't already. Local stealership wanted $85 lmao. I don't have the space to lift and remove to adjust the drum directly; neighborhood is a bit uptight for me to do it on the street.

I've had a couple annoying stalls on the steepest points of hills because the **** head in front suddenly changed their mind about...moving. Tried the handbrake most times to calmly recover but no bite. I had to heel/toe and gtfo. I generally don't take that way home with the Z anymore.
