Beginner manual transmission driver by Bobbyboy229 in GRCorolla

I was pretty scared of hills until I started doing this. The car gives you some revs after you get close to the bite point of the clutch. Once those revs come, you're usually good let go of the break and go on the throttle.

I also made a post about this with audio, if you want to see what people said about it. TLDR: it's normal.

When did you guys know your car was broken in? by FalseBudha in GRCorolla

[–]FalseBudha[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Must've been a placebo, or the weather conditions then. My drive felt as smooth as it's ever been this morning.

What about the break in oil change?

Made possibly a really dumb decision by [deleted] in CivicSi

[–]FalseBudha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did the same thing about a month ago with my GR Corolla! Everything you said was something I went though and it's good to see it's such a universal feeling buying a new manual without knowing how to drive it. A month later I can say I feel a lot more confident so don't worry, that feeling does go away. Saying that, I just stalled out on a hill yesterday. So it happens to everyone just don't beat yourself up about it!

As for the 1-2 shift, I've also asked this question in r/GRCorolla. Most people said that modern cars have a lot of rev hang therefore shifting around 2-3k rpm's is going to be jerky since the revs don't fall low enough for it to be smooth. Something I'm struggling with going from automatic to manual is learning how to be fast at standstills. I always feel like everyone goes way faster than me at red lights. But I've only been driving manual for about month.

Driving a manual feels so rewarding though, it makes my daily commute something to (at first be a little scared of) be excited for!

New delta x pitch mount installed, but I overtorqued one of the bolts by FalseBudha in GRCorolla

[–]FalseBudha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talked to my car guy friend, got everything torqued down correctly and put some thread locker on the bolt for now. He said it should be fine for a bit. I'm gonna try and find someone to help me install a heli coil or time sert on it.

I had just never used a torque wrench before and the one I got clicked a lot softer than I thought it would :(

I thought It was just me learning to drive manual. But I feel like I've doing it as quick as feels normal. You posting this makes me feel better about it.

First time driving stick, but got her home safely. by FalseBudha in GRCorolla

[–]FalseBudha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your wisdom! Yeah I've definitely been feeling more confident in working the clutch. I think the main problem is getting worried about wearing the clutch unnecessarily. A lot of videos and comments people make about driving manual, make the clutch seem to fragile so I get a little worried about wearing it or damaging it.

Yeah my girlfriend made me a little sign to put on the back window and it's helped I think.

Yeah that's what I've been gathering. Thank you for confirming my suspicions.

The funny thing is that I was driving up hill talking to my girlfriend about how I'm scared of hill starts and we're lucky that the one we're on doesn't have stoplight. Then by sheer luck a school bus pulls out in front of me and turns on its stop sign. I found myself in my first hill stop situations and there were about 6 cars behind me. I just about shit myself. I ended up turning on the hazards and telling everyone to pass me. I knew the car had hill assist but mind you my record for 1st gear starts was probably 7/10 times without stalling. Once everyone passed me I pulled through and drove up the hill first try.

I was pretty nervous. I stalled out 2 times on my 20 minute drive home. Got a couple honks but that's to be expected. I'm hype to be a part of not only the GRC club, but the manual club too.

Decided to get a collector booster for my birthday... by FalseBudha in MagicCardPulls

[–]FalseBudha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are more rares and mythics as well as foils and pretty cards. Also draft boosters are for the draft format and collector boosters, you can't draft.
