So im ALOT better at manual with my Type R now...theres only 2 trouble spots.
1. Downshifting on flat road (havnt had to downshift on uphil yet but it will prolly jerk even more doing what im doing below)
So for example if im on 4th gear going 40 MPH and im coming to a stop and I slow down to 20 MPH and it turns green and i want to turn right...I usually shift to 2nd or 3rd...let go of the clutch slowly and then give gas...but then it jerks. It jerks backwards first and then forwards..which means im not giving enough gas?
So basically I think the problem is im not rev matching when I downshift? I thought its bad to give gas when I have the clutch pressed down?
2. Changing gears from complete stop to 3rd gear on Uphill causes jerking..
So basically when im fully stopped on a hill (brake hold on) and its time to go..I let go of clutch very slowly and give gas earlier than usual and im able to start going without going backwards..but then chaning gears to 2nd or 3rd always makes me jerk (forward jerk then back)...
Am I supposed to change gear at a high MPH then usual when im on flat road? Or do I let go of the clutch even more slowly compared to flat road?
Thank you for the help!!
