Well this is my first manual trans car im looking to buy. You could see my sig. A 6 speed z28 camaro, but anyways I drove other sticks before but, they where 4 speed or 5 speed and know I went to test drive my camaro and like the shift stick is kinda uncomfortable. Like I feel like the gears are too close together, like it isn't a good enough distance apart from each other. Even like neutural is to bundled up with the top gears and the bottom gears which is sometimes a lil confusing and pesky for me. Is this how all 6 gears are and I just have to deal with it or could I do something to change this, or do I just have to deal and get use to it.


Thanks all answers will be apreciated.

 

post of a picture of the shifter. You might have a short stick. If you do, you will find lots of members here, including myself, that will trade our factory length sticks for your short stick

 

Why and let me check and see. I don't have the car yet, but I do have some pics.

 

I dont know how to put up pics. But you can gimme your email.

 

Know that I do think about it, it's not really the stick but I guess the spots or what ever where the stick gets into gear. I would like a longer stride from point to point in my car. How would I do that. Its just kind of annoying to have first, neuatral so close together for me. So anyo ne has a soulution or know what I can do?

 

just drive it....you will get used to it. then anything else you drive will feel sloppy. After you get used to it I think you will really like it alot esp. when you are on the gas and go to pull a gear

 

That's what I was probably thinking. I'll drive it for a while and deal and after some time will update, but if anyone else has anything to say answers are still welcomed.

 

yea you probably have a short shifter, and you'll get used to it
generally for performance you want a short shifter so you can shift faster

 

Sounds good. Okay.
