Need tips for driving manual 370z

AestheticCM1 · 09-28-2018, 02:40 PM

The clutch feel is actually surprisingly reminiscent of the e36 3 series. Tips on driving manual? Don't ride the clutch, don't pop the clutch, and replace the fluid often.

What do you mean exactly by don't ride the clutch? I do see this a lot and I don't do it as far as I know, but what exactly does it mean? Does it mean don't slip it longer than needed?

And how often do you change fluid? I was planning on changing the gear oil and clutch fluid with my next oil change.
