My wife wants to learn how to drive a stick and the only one we have is my 12 Gsr. How do I tell her HELL NO nicely? Lol

 

Tell her she needs to practice on your stick some more first.

 

Lmao. I don't think she will find that as funny as me

 

Tell her your clutch costs a grand. A honda costs 500$.

 

Tell her that the focus rectifier in the turbo encapsulator is a very high class of technical advancement... because The original machine had a base-plate of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the pentametric fan. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible trem'e pipe to the differential girdlespring on the 'up' end of the grammeters.

Im sure she will understand.

 

She's one of those who thinks she can already do it so I might as well just let her do it. But last time I tried to teach her on a older car she would just continue to stall and stall and stall

 

 

I think she'll stall on this car, there's more power and if she gases it too much you might have to replace something haha.

I'd rent a vehicle that's stick. You don't wanna burn up your clutch or over heat it and crack it.

Race cars aren't meant to teach people how to drive stick...

 

If shes adament about trying your car, tell her if she stalls once, shes done. To,d that to my wife. She did fine around the block, stalled it when parking it. Lol

 

^ like this idea. I'm a horrible teacher and it just ends up in a big fight! Lol

 

I learned how to drive stick in my older evo lol. No real harm done.

 

If you have another car to practice on, then do it. Take her to a parking lot and show her techniques to get going smoothly, both by you demonstrating, by riding with her in the car and then, watch her from outside the car. Most women get nervous when they are with either their fathers, husbands or boyfriends. After learning to drive away in first gear, then show her how to smoothly shift the gears paying attention to the revs and speed as well as the sound of the engine. The good thing is that an Evo is really easy to learn to drive on with its soft pressure plate and torquey engine.

 

How long did the clutch last?

 

Can you record this for us to watch?

 

im a female and i learned how to drive stick on my Evo X. I took a big risk buying a car i had no idea how to drive but i did it and my clutch is still good.. on about 25,000 miles now and i bought it brand new
