Hello

[rainmaker7]

Just bought me an 06 Speed6 pearl white about a week ago. So far love the new car, came with a little more miles than i wanted, 45000, but it seems okay. I guess i'll find out later. Car is still stock and i plan on keeping it that way for awhile. I'll do some bolt-on this summer, probably won't spend over 1000. I also own an 93 RX-7 and have about 10 grand to go before i'm done with her.

So far the only issue i have is with the clutch, completely different feel than my 7, and that was my first manual. At first i thought i sucked at driving, really hurt my ego, but after looking into i see other people have the same issues when they start driving it. Is it worth saving up for an aftermarket unit, something with a more sportier feel? or just suck it up and learn to drive my car like a real man.

The dual mass flywheels and the clutches have felt a little weird to me too. I would wait to change the clutch until you need to. AWD + Clutch job = not so much fun.

Test pipe and inlet are the best and easiest power mods.. And there's an adjuster for the clutch pedal.. It helps..

Welcome aboard. yeah a lot of people complain about the clutch. The few friends I have let drive my car either stall it the first time or get really close to stalling it.

Even had a 60+ year old woman who owned a white ms6 tell me it was like the first time she ever drove stick.

Yea when I test drove the car, the car salesman who was in the car with me gave me a look like, "are you sure you know how to drive stick?" lol Its fine once you get used to it, although it is pretty funny when I got my supra friend to drive it and watch him struggle to drive without stalling. Amazing car once you get used to it!

Yeah i thought it was all me until my buddy stalled it 6 times trying to back it out of the driveway. I really wanted black so it would match the 7, but the pearl white is just stunning when you see it in person.

Welcome to the forums! Take a look at the link in my sig for a breakdown of mods. Definitely look into intake, turbo inlet, and rear motor mount ASAP if you're in the market to mod. They'll totally change the car.

Thirded. Welcome to the forums, and don't worry about the clutch, you get used to it. I'm actually glad I taught my GF to drive in this car, because now she'll be able to drive anything.
