Learn to shift fast...

My wife's 1995 Nissan pickup with the 4cyl and original 155k mile clutch can chirp second.

it's not an equipment issue, it's a skill issue. learn how to shift faster, don't replace the shifter to MAKE you shift faster. moving the shifter is only about 10% of the total shift. The majority of a quick shift is clutch control and timing.

You can shift as fast as you want but if the clutch is worn, all it will do is slip. Unless ur riding the clutch pedal..

HEHEHEHEHE.....somebody needs some serious help in driving a stick...
My auto even chirps it's tires when shifting to second at WOT. Maybe you should put ****ty tires on your max first and practice on that.

I can chirp 3rd in a stock VE 5 speed. If your car is draggin after you shift, you need a new clutch.
