Gear ratio - for shifting

And if you don't, then you can always walk home(or hitch a ride).
God help the poor bastard that buys your car sometime down the track.:zlove:
P.S. I'm still waiting to hear from the genius who doesn't use a clutch to start off from a standstill(in traffic, of course).

 

Key start!!

 

I'd love to see you demonstrate that in Sydney's stop/start traffic(never mind, it should be on the Evening News very shortly).:zlove:

BTW, the question was about "clutch-less shifting"(or crutch-less knickers), I can't remember which.:sorry::zlove:

 

Brisbane can be just as shiteza! I couldn't do that to my starter motor. Plus the battery wouldn't last 2k's up the road!

haha ah the cars still going as strong as it did a year ago from doing this to it every day lol

as stated above if needed key start ftw

 

Thats very good for you M8.

Clutchless shifting with a synchro gearbox is considered gearbox abuse.
Its easy to see you have never seen the results of your nefarious clutchless shifting habit in terms of wear on synchro rings and shifter forks.

In the short term, it all feels nice and satisfying doesnt it? Slip thru the gears without lifting ur left foot....no? Impresses the boys as well!!! The ladies often are impressed with your driving savvy.......!

However, the longer term results are synchro and to a lesser extent, shifter fork wear, hundreds, if not thousands of times in excess of shifting using a clutch.

Anyway, dont go squealing when your gearbox begins to start "banging" into gears and eventually grinding the engagement dogs or jumping out of gear due to insufficient engagement of the shifter rings caused by excessive wear between the shifter forks and the engagement rings.
Youll especially notice this on backoff and have to hold the shifter "in" with your hand, thereby still further accelerating shifter fork and engagement ring wear.
Eventually, the thing will begin to jump out of gear under extreme load. Ooohh man, the sound of that will make your eyes water and your arsehole clamp up!!!!!

And youve had no trouble in a year!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *tips hat*. Will take a bit more than a year or two to end up with these dramas.
Hopefully, it might be someone elses drama by then eh?? LMAO
