What if I shift from 4 to 6?
>>14468392
your revs will drop
>>14468392
You gonna enter a new dimension and be able to fuck yourself in the ass
I do this all of the time because 5th is useless except passing on highways when I can't be fucked to go into 4th.. Why don't they gear 6MTs so that 5th is a bit shorter while making 6th longer?
>>14468392
In lazy city flow I sometimes shift from 2nd to 4th. Instant cruise mode, and I'm not even mad at old lady in front of me.
youd die
You will fuck the transmission
>>14468392
DON'T DO IT OP IT CREATES MUSTARD GAS
YOU WILL DIE

Only if OP is a skrillex (had to google the name, still dont know how that halfshaven retard is called)
Actual answer
On icy road you will go HECTIC
On warm summer you will have to go back and collect your rear axle
If you not driving anywhere and shift from 4 to 6 someone from /o/ will run to your window and tell you you put too much stress on the gears and you basically a faggot
Hope this helped, click like if it helped or repost if you want to help feed all the hungry drivers with rice (one grain of rice mod per repost)

>>14468392
You'll strip your synchros.
As long as you match the revs your car should only take minimal damage, broken linkage at the least.
>>14468392
>MFW the SRT has so much torque down low I routinely shift from 1st to 6th.
Nothing is going to fucking happen unless you're already crawling in 4th.
>>14468636
>what is waiting for the revs to drop before putting it in gear and/or double clutching.
>>14469371
Fun fact double clutching is downshifting granny shifting is upshifting both using clutch twice
>>14469429
Double clutching (also called double declutching) is a method of shifting gears used primarily for vehicles with an unsynchronized manual transmission, such as commercial trucks and specialty vehicles. Double clutching is not necessary in a vehicle that has a synchronized manual transmission.
~wikipedia
TL;DR:
Double clutching will save wear on synchros.

Underrated post

Your cars soul will get stripped.
It would be extremely painful.
>>14468392
You'll put strain on the manifold and might put it in danger.

Hi, reddit!
Why does everyone act like skipping a gear when upshifting will damage synchros?
If you rev match, what's the issue?
>>14468444
>Not 1-2-6
It's like you don't even traffic light race
>>14469708
It's /o/. Just ignore it.
>>14469708
it really doesn't damage anything, it's a meme.
In my country they'll even mark you down on your license test if you go through every single gear like a fucking retard when't it's not needed.
>>14468392
My truck is a 5 speed and I regularly go 1-2-3-5 in traffic. If everyone is really taking off quick from lights I'll go 1-2-5.

Your sparkplugs will corrode prematurely.
>>14468543
>Shortshifting damages your car
Better tell GM to recall every manual LS car they've ever made, then. They've got lockouts to force you to shift 1-4.
Of course everyone disables them anyways, but still.
>>14468655 What linkage??
>>14468636 that's the reason synchros are there
>>14469429 you're an idiot - double clutching is not needed...ever...unless you're driving a 1942 Mack truck
>>14469658 wrong...so wrong
It would be extremely painful
>>14468392
Nothing
>>14470120
ebin :^)
>>14470114
You're are idiot. You still need to double clutch a modern semi transmission.
>>14469429
what the fuck?
>>14470114
it's not needed but it reduces wear on synchros and it's kinda fun
I drive 1-2-3-5 all day
>>14468392
warranty voided
>>14468392
This kills the transmission
Your engine will assplode.
>>14468392
Who gives a fuck
>>14468422
My LS1 torques along quite nicely at about 5% throttle in 5th at 35MPH. Some cars have the torque for city-speed "overdrive" cruising.
>>14468392
I'll usually skip 3-5 during most traffic situations cause muh torks
Keep it out of 6th gear unless I am already cruising.
>>14468409
kek
>>14468392
Nothing bad at all. I shift from 3rd to 5th quite regularly.
Welcome to the wondrous world of manual transmissions, where you get to decide what happens.
Don't do it, this makes nerve gas
ITT: granny shifting retards
>not double clutching like you should

>Implying this is necessary on modern transmissions with synchro rings.
>>14477305
Read the thread you fucking american-minded faggot.
It's not necessary to change oil regularly either, but you do it because it keeps everything working better for longer
>>14477209

>>14470110
Lockout to shift from 1-4??? What???
>>14468422
>>14468422
My old five speed in my datsun has 1-4 geared shorter than the stock 4 speed, and then 5th as a longer/bigger gear, mainly for keeping the revs down. I like it

Dude. just put it in D and you'll be fine
