I got my BRZ a few weeks back and don't know whether I'm doing something wrong or otherwise. So if anyone can help it'll be great. Say I'm driving along a straight road at 80km/h (50mph) and am going into a slip lane for a 90 degree turn into a suburban street. I'll downshift down to 2nd gear and as I release the clutch (from 3rd to 2nd), the rear tires chirp (or slightly lockup). I'm tempted to ease of the clutch slower but then I'm worried about riding the clutch.
Slightly getting worried about how all this affects the life of the transmission/clutch
Can someone explain to me what's going on? and how can I avoid this?
EDIT for clarification:
What's happening is I'm travelling at50mph but as I'm going into the slip lane I am braking to the the appropriate speed of the turn about 30kmh or 18.6mph. Once I get to around 20mph I downshift to 2nd and that's when the chirp (lockup) occurs. I'm not shifting to 2nd at 50mph lol. I'm shifting to 2nd at 18mph just before the turn.
