Took the words right outta my mouth for 1>2.. I've been letting revs drop too before I start releasing the clutch and it does feel way too slow. Then again, it's fine for commuting and daily driving cuz you're up to speed with everyone else but this car doesn't feel right sometimes when it's that slow. I've heard revving past 4k RPM does the trick or rev much lower, it seems the 3k range isn't good for quick shifting.
I'll find out of the 4k+ rpm shifting works once I'm done with my break-in period, but I've noticed that if I shift early then the revs drop too quickly and the engine feels sluggish in second. I've just gotten used to letting the clutch out slowly on the 1>2 shift and 2>3 to make it as smooth as possible.

I agree with the tint, I've had 10-15% on all my cars in the past and this one will be no different.

I based it off the regular values and the CXP is a bit darker... didn't realize it until the tint was already on. Oh well, just gotta be careful I guess.


Looks solid! Now I'm more anxious to get mine done lol
