Every time i shift from first to second below like 4000rpms the gear change is so loud and its incredibly knocky... am I doing something wrong or is the tranny just loud?

it goes like *CLUNK* then follows by a subtle *clunk* right? LOL. It sounded disturbing at first but i've gotten use to it.

yeah its annoying to me too...i drove my friends brand new Si...the clutch was like butter, which i loved and quiet as a mouse. felt like i was drivin a Semi after i got back in the Z...would never trade up the power of a Z for the delight of a nicer clutch tho

Most Japanese cars I have drove have really soft clutches and smooth shifting transmissions, except the Z. But what do you expect with a car that has a lot of power/torque?? It needs a tougher trans/clutch so it doesnt fall apart under all that stress. The Z's trans. reminds me of my unlces Z-28, but a little smoother.

Mine I stupid loud, like a jet comming down the road. You can hear car from a block away.

When mine started sounding like a jet engine, they yanked it and replaced it under warranty. Just to give you a heads up.
