Friday get-together?

[zenilder]

That jerky little prick better be going, or it's going to be getting hot in here.

I know you're looking at the thread while standing behind the counter at that computer store, so why don't you reply, sizzlechest.

sup, i just got my titanium MSP last month and been watching the forum for awhile.

as for the meet.. here's my vote: i live in irvine and spectrum would be cool with me.

i was actually wondering if some of you guys could take a look at my car for me.. it's been getting harder and harder for me to shift smoothly into 2nd.. i've been double clutching to ease it in for the past couple days, but 2nd, 4th, and reverse (all the "bottom" gears?) are _REALLY_ notchy and hate having to be shifted in/out of.

i had heard of some tranny/shifter quirks in this car, but my honda was NEVER this bad.. also i got my car pre-flashed before i bought it, so i really don't know what the hesitation feels like. if someone wouldnt mind taking me for a ride and let me know if i've still got the hesitation problem or not.

thanks in advance,
hope to see a lot of you from the forum there.

btw i'm a 4th year student at UCI, in case any of you are too.

friday, 8:30pm @ D&B? man parking' sgonna be so hard...

[lastsaga]

thanks for the welcome jess.

the problem with my 2nd gear.. doesn't seem to happen all the time. it comes and goes, which really bugs me.

we should designate a specific place to meet.. i don't feel like walking up to a bunch of guys asking them if they're part of a mazda board heh

perhaps you could describe it detail. what rpm does it most often occur? is it a slow shift, powershift, or what? i remember when i first bought the car, a shift at redline from 1-2 was almost near impossible unless you eased it in. now, its a lot easier than that.

it sounds like a borked shifter fork to me, but it could be a number of things. in the MP3, shifting has only gotten better for me though.

gahh.. that's what i'm afraid of. thing is, there are times it goes in perfectly smooth. btw i've never redlined the car yet. i've taken it for some canyon racing twice, but they were both relatively short stints.. just trying to get the feel for the freakin-quick steering.

it has ~780 miles on it and i shift around 2.8k. i shift at 3.5k if i wanna get ahead of the car next to me. lol..

i shift relatively slow, i like to have the shifter in gear solidly before i let out the clutch, but not slow enough that the tach bounces back up after i shift.

Irvine Spectrum would be 20 to 30 minutes north on the 5.
