How to rev match? [23-02, 10:35] ICE BOY double clutching is better for the syncros Chat was useless in this subject, so here we go. I'm more curious on the proper technique(s) and limiting synchro wear. In the past and up to recently, I've done: -Clutch in -Downshift -Rev up -Clutch out Lately, I've been doing: -Clutch in -Rev up -Downshift -Clutch out In theory to limit syncro wear. Does it matter? Am I going in the wrong direction? Thoughts? |
:facepalm: |
Flick the paddle, duh. Spoiler! |
I find it goes into gear easier if I match the RPM to the gears before shifting, and I would think that this makes more sense. Correct me if I'm wrong though.. Double clutching: clutch in -> neutral -> clutch out -> rev -> clutch in -> gear -> clutch out? |
revmatching alone doesn't save your syncros. double clutching with revmatching does. Clutch in shift to neutral clutch out rev clutch in shift to gear clutch out i dunno...i don't do it to my cars as it's too annoying and painfully slow. It's like my left leg will constantly be clutching in and out. fuck that. it's not like you are shifting at redline all the time, i don't see this as much of a need. |

Smoothie's just granny shifting, not double clutching like he should... Shame on you. Vin Diesel would be extremely upset... Spoiler! |

I thought double clutching was for older vehicles without syncros no? Like old army truck and whatnot. Double clutching was needed to prevent grinding. For me, as soon as I depress the clutch pedal I blip the throttle while changing gears then release. Seems to be working for me. I can't heel-toe for shit though. haha. |

Which is why it also makes no sense in this context... |
Decrease synchro wear, increase clutch plate, clutch cylinders, & throwout bearing wear. Not worth the effort. |
Double clutching is stupid and as others have said it wears out a bunch of stuff for no reason. Rev matching doesn't matter when you do it as you're clutch is disengaged anyways. |
Don't use clutch. |

Me personally I double clutch when downshifting an just "regular" shift when up shifting. Force of habit from work as I usually shift differently depending on what i'm trying to accomplish. |

On my work trucks, I only use the clutch from complete stops. Shifting at 2-2.5k lol. |

He's lucky he didn't blow the welds on the intake. :troll: ___ Semi related to this thread, what do I do when I'm at a stop? Do I keep it in 1st or put it in neutral? |
For shot stops leave it in first, longer stops pop it in neutral but pay attention and get in gear before you need to move. |
sorry for the ignorance, but what is a clutch? |
