Rules for this thread - Do NOT make this into a W58 vs X thread - I do not care.

Car runs... and very well mind you. Yes I am a rookie driver to manual... 4 days old to be exact. No comments on that either.

Other than that.... post away

 

1. my w58 is better then your w58

2. you ARE a rookie

3. msglngth lol

good **** dude.

love it.

 

yea u are a rook...LOL but its all good man i cant wait to convert my sc3 to a 5 speed...

 

you are a brave man for learning manual on a nice car lol

awesome swap

 

dude. i learned stick on an s2000 back in 2002. that was a very steep learning curve

 

damn, i learned how to drive stick when i was 10 back in the philippines lol ... love the car man ....

 

Pretty cool man!

 

Matt teach me soon!!!

 

Very cool! How's the performance improvement over that automatic?

 

That's how a V8 needs to sound! Being able to rev whenever you please, that lull in the exhaust tone between slow shifts, etc. Badass.

Again I ask, how's the pedal feel on that Howe TOB? I realize you're a rookie manual driver, but how's the engagement? Crisp? Soft? On/off?

 

Very nice Matt. I'm thinking about picking up a 400 just to do a swap. And I don't wanna hear you guys complain about what you learned on. I learned on a 300ZXTT back in 97 and have not stepped into an Auto since then.

 

Nice man! The car looks and sounds terrific! Looks like you have the hang of the manual down pretty well. Congrats on a job well done!

 

looks great man. I wanna swap a 1uzfe into my 5spd SC3 now lol

 

I will have to say crisp. Its not soft like a pillow but you its not like kicking a brick either.

Its not an on/off feel but you can REALLY feel where it engages. Its very easy to drive with it.

Maybe Jake or Sean will chime in since they have driven the car and both have 1uzfe W58 Supras...

 

nice job red LoL you look like such a safe and courtious driver i think it has been said before but your are makes a good stand for keeping the pre 97 look
