ILIV48 ...you go girl....love a bit of spirited dialogue....and you're bloody right 'n all

It's not unfair to say that the Japanese motor industry has only managed to dig itself (with the possible exception of the beige brigade at Toyota) out of the poo from the introduction of some of those definitely not kaizen yanks and frogs!

And we are blessed that someone at Ford let a half crazed ex motor sport loon at the helm of Mazda for long enough for them to churn out a whole new series of bloody different looking and performing cars....zoom zoom indeed!

Oh in regards to this 2nd gear crunch, my girlfriend recently bought me a RAZO gearknob for my birthday and i can honestly say, I will NEVER crunch another gear again.

You need to have a look at another gear stick, the grip on the stock ones are very very poor compared to my new one and i think its the main reason why trying to shove the stick
at pace is a problem.

I purchased it for $110 at SRS Auto.

You cannot give a component an arbitrary tolerance value. All parts will be given a tolerance specification relative to a datum axis (reference point) and it is dependant on the total tolerance allowed for the set of components to function properly.

If designed properly the designer will try to create minimal number of critical tolerances so all or most parts can have a large tolerance value and ensure costs are low. So even if you add all tolerances to the extreme the component should still function to spec.

No point having a tolerance value for no reason!

Back to the clunking....

I had a bit of stiffness myself, changed to Redline MT90 oil.

Better, by about 50%, but still not great, drained the MT90 and put a mixture of two-thirds MT90/ one third Redline MTL.

MUCH improved - silky smooth & clunk-free!
