faster shift? all i can say is get a short shifter if they make it for your car. i dont know if they make short shifters for your car though, cuz i dont know wut u drive.

well, I drive a '84 bmw 318i. and sometimes when I shift into 2nd gear the car shakes. so my friend told me that maybe I should try double shifting

EDIT: he also told me to match rpm wif my speed or redlining it.

WORD BMW....

well, my shit grinds if i mash it into 3rd gear to fast or hard.... i think my synchro's are shot, so sometimes i double clutch. Usually i just match carefully and shift slowly and smoothly... but if your gears aren't grinding, then what's the problem? Just slam it into gear and you're off... unless the car shakes after you've engaged 2nd gear. that's just weird.
