yup, i live actually borderline ktown.. i live like 40 seconds (in car) away from larchmont. should i practice on the Z to learn, or practice on a rental civic? some suggest that i should just buy my z, get a friend to drive it to my house and practice on the Z because every clutch is different.

thanks for the congrats. hopefully, you'll get your car soon too.

yo knucklez yeah i would probably get used to the Z... since its completely different depending on your car is u buy it new our clutches tend to ride higher and way stiffer, when i sold my civic Si (stick) to pick up a 350z it took some getting to used to, even my bro's supra had a racing clutch but the Z was "different" i guess cause it rode much higher but what i like about its clutch is it grabs like pretty well almost anywhere.... i bought my Z in '03 without test driving it but yeah... great f*cken car much fun with the ladies and it handles f*cken great.... good luck prolly see u around ktown or in some of the meets
