How To Drive A Manual Transmission Vehicle | The Easy Way To Never Stall

- 👋 In todays video it is time to learn how to drive a manual transmission vehicle! This is something that just isn't taught like it should be and most people either don't know how or have never seen a manual vehicle. The manual transmission in my opinion is very fun and engaging once you get the hang of it and understand more about driving in one.
The hardest part with learning to drive a manual is the start. Balancing the clutch pedal and the gas to make a smooth transition from sitting still to underway. This is something that will need to be practiced a lot to become comfortable. I suggest learning to drive a manual in an empty parking lot or some large space with no cars to eliminate traffic so you can focus. Once the vehicle starts to move, shifting gears comes next. It's the same process as the start up, but you can start to move quick since the vehicle is already underway. The beauty with a manual transmission as well is that you can skip gears as well, so you don't have to go in order for upshifting or downshifting. That just depends on the situation that you are in!
There's a lot to learn about driving a manual transmission and the more you drive the more you will start to understand and have more fun behind the wheel!
From rev matching, to skipping gears, to letting the rpm go higher for some more sporty driving, it's certainly fun and also will allow you to drive some cars that are solely a manual! There are quite a lot of vehicles that aren't offered in an automatic, so if it's a car you want, you'll have to learn so you are ready! If I didn't know how to drive a manual, there would be a lot of vehicles that I have reviewed that I would have not been able too! I've been driving a manual since I was sixteen and am so glad I learned!

I been looking at how to drive a manual specifically for GR86 so good timing!
Thank you for this! About to try to teach both my wife and son how to drive a manual. This is going to be required "reading" before we step to the car! 😂
i can’t wait to get a manual 🔥
They are fun to drive!
Thank you for uploading this video, the GR86 is my first manual vehicle. I've been having a hard time figuring out what the best RPMs to shift in this car. You have confirmed my guess of shifting around the 3-4k RPM range. 🙂
Just picked up a A91 Supra with the 6 speed. Very fun car, but never really had someone to teach me. I'm happy to see that what I have been doing is what you are teaching. Watching this video has given me the reassurance that I am not royally F'ing up lol. Also the supra kind of cheats with auto rev matching which is nice.
holding down the clutch pedal at a light can prematurely wear out your throwout bearing. I stick it in neutral 👍
Yup! That’s what I talked about!
Put my deposit in for a 2024 premium in steel last month. First manual car. This was a nice video to watch, given that it's basically the same exact vehicle. I've been crunching pretty hard (also have a sim rig) to learn everything. I'm hoping to have it pretty much down by the time it arrives!
Is it here yet? I also put a deposit down for a gr86
What about down shift, can we down shift from 6th gear to 4th gear or we have to down shift in order 6-5-4-3-2-1- neutral to able to stop completely?
I covered that! You can skip gears. I went over doing that!
Awesome! As you're all the way into the clutch, to give it gas you have to slowly let go of halfway of the clutch and then give in the gas? Is that correct.. you did mention but didnt understand it because of my slow brain. Thank you..
You can give it gas at any time while holding the clutch.. but the car won't move unless you are at the 'bite point'.
Easiest way to describe it, when you see the rpm starting dip when releasing the clutch start to give it gas. You want your feet to be doing the opposite, one releasing, one pressing down.
For those who want a long explanation:
Think of the clutch as a rubberband around two rotating plates (kinda like two gears which work with friction instead). One plate is spinning on the engine side (controlled by the accelerator) and it connects to a plate on the transmission side (which is turning with the wheels). When the clutch is all the way in, the "rubberband" pulls those two plates completely away disconnecting the engine and the wheels. During this time the engine spin will start to lose inertia and the speed of it drops, shown as RPM (revolutions or "rotations" per minute) on your dash, don't worry, the car computer wont allow the car to stall while it's rolling. When you start to rise the clutch pedal (releasing the "rubberband") to the "bite point" (where the plates meet) the engine plate will once again start to spin with the transmission plate which is spinning with the wheels. You want to make this transition between plates smooth.
While clutched in; On downshifts (i.e. 3rd to 2nd), by using the accelerator you can speed up the engine plate to catch up to the speed of the wheels' plate depending on how fast the wheels are turning. On upshifts (i.e. 2nd to 3rd), you just clutch in, let the engine lose a little bit of speed, and clutch out when you think it should match the wheels. Basically you want to make the transition between these two plates as smooth as possible by letting out the clutch slower to the "bite point" if the engine RPM needs to change a lot to match the wheels and faster if the engine RPM difference is small.
Remember these plates will create more friction the bigger the difference in speed of the two plates. Sliding these plates is what creates clutch wear over time. The reason the car jerks is because you're connecting one plate spinning too much faster than the other and they have to grind a bit to match each other's speed sending that extra force through the car. The clutch isn't a miracle worker, it tries to match the speed of the plates but sometimes it helps to put a little bit of your input, using the accelerator pedal. Just try to let go of the gas right before you clutch out to the bite point as it makes the plates grind a bit and can be jerky too, maybe even more so because the engine generates a lot of power.
Think of gears this way. Lower gears have higher ratios meaning if your 1st gear is "4.1" then 4 turns of the engine is 1 turn of the wheel. Gear 2 could be 3.2, Gear 3 could be like 2.6, until you get to a gear, sometimes 5th, where the engine and transmission speeds are 1 to 1. If you're good at math and you figure out the ratios, then you'll know exactly what RPM an engine should be at any given speed and gear. It's not easy math, but that's part of the fun of driving manual and getting good at it. You can find gear ratios for your car with some googling.
This is why if you go to a very low gear when the car wheels are spinning very fast you will spike the RPM's on the engine so fast that you could potentially break it by running hard into the rev limiter and maybe past red line. Higher vehicle speeds means your wheels are turning much faster. The RPM of the wheels times the gear ratio should = RPM of the engine.
Actual GR86 Ratios:
First Gear Ratio 3.63 (:1)
40% Difference
Second Gear Ratio 2.19 (:1)
30% Difference
Third Gear Ratio 1.54 (:1)
22% Difference
Fourth Gear Ratio 1.21 (:1)
18% Difference
Fifth Gear Ratio 1.00 (:1)
23% Difference
Sixth Gear Ratio 0.77 (:1)
As you can see. 1st gear to 2nd is drastic. 2nd to third is decent. 3rd to 4th, and 4th to 5th, the difference is small enough to not matter much unless you skip gears. Almost feels like one of those gears could be removed because they're so close to each other. Therefore while the 6th gear is a slightly bigger jump when you combine it with the other gears it's not very good on gas. Lol, when you're close to 90 mph the car is at around 4000rpm. At 3500mph around 80 mph. This is intentional of course, for fun...and the car is fun.
