Find someone who drives a Honda. Seriously the clutches on those cars may as well be rubber bands.

The most touchy clutch I have ever driven was a Mazda. It was like a switch, the friction point took some getting used to.

I was looking at civic si's a few years ago and I drove one with a stage two clutch or whatever and that was literally a switch. Drove it out of the parking lot and turned right around lol every other car I've been able to drive perfectly well. My Camaro was a bit of a change because of the drive by wire vs cable in my Honda.

I learned to drive on a 4 in the floor 1986 S10, That thing was hell on earth at 16 to learn to drive.

No power steering, touch the gas pedal and it instantly went to floor, Learning to have proper control of both feet for smooth shifts were quite intense.

I was taught on a 98 Passat that you probably didn't even need to use the clutch to change gears. Learned when I was 14 from my buddy who was 13 at the time lol


So I've hit the 100 mile mark for the "break in" on the vararam and the car certainly feels quicker but I'm wondering if I over oiled the filter a bit and that could mess up the readings a bit at the maf? Also thinking I may not see the real gains till I get my summer tires back on from more tire slip on the winter tires and more traction control stepping in... I dunno its odd. I really want to get a ported TB now...
