hahaha, my dd is a 6MT G35C as well. :icon17: no SRM hasn't bothered me.

I do agree with this, with the exception of a few luxury makes. In a lot of cars with very dampened clutches you can get away without a rev match downshift and not feel to much of a jolt. I've noticed nearly all Audis don't require rev matching because they are extremely dampened and they have a fairly long slip range during engagement, as opposed to the on-off button we have in our cars.

Yes, you should still do it, but they were designed that way for the average Audi consumer who is unlikely to rev match or know what a rev match is.

Agreed, other cars I've driven haven't required rev matching like the Z does. It's actually startling to feel the difference if someone drives your car with SRM off without knowing how to Rev Match (but that's why no one else drives my car).

Yeah, pretty much.

I drove the Nissan Juke Performance Motorsport used to have sitting around back in the day - I rev-matched it the first few times, and a few others time I forgot (I was half expecting it to do it for me...and half lazy since they told me I could push it around a little).

Anyway, I was pretty surprised when I realized that I did not rev match a few times and didn't feel that awful drivetrain jolt as much from the Juke as I would a 350Z, for example. Fun little car that thing was.

Thanks Ron. I used to do this till I read your post... I was under the impression it would be the other way around! but i do recall seeing this when I was kid with the difference that the ignition would be turned off when the car was coasting in neutral... and then without the crank just pop the clutch to start it back up...
