hey all just got a new evo gsr at 12k miles and wanted to know if this is normal or do I have something I need to fix?

When I floor the gas on first and reach the rpm right before the red line I step on the clutch, I release the gas and shift to second then I release the clutch as soon as I do that(no jerking here) I floor it again and the car jerks badly( as I hear a sound of it biting). Sometimes the car jerks for 2 second and lose power but then once that stops it accelerate back again normally.


Am I not shifting right do I need to slip the clutch after the shift to 2nd and step on the gas gradually and more smoothly for that not to happen? or is there something wrong with my new car?

Slip the clutch. I still do it from time to time, you will figure out what the car likes.

get yourself some mods,tune and a clutch and it will be all good

3 years on the stock clutch, driving like a maniac, I never experienced this. Clutch is really only needed if you burn up your OEM or you want to launch.

^ That.

Sounds like you're dumping the clutch on every shift?

You could be hitting boost cut on the shift if the car is on the stock limit.

yes after 2nd gear I raise my foot of the clutch pretty quickly when its fully raised I hit the gas hard down to the floor. I dont experience the jerk after I let my foot of the clutch completely but only after pressing the gas down quickly . That was my question if thats a problem with me driving it wrong or something wrong with the car.

If its a problem with me driving it wrong should i let the clutch up slowly and press on the gas down fast (therefore slipping the clutch and easing the throttle to not experience the jerking I get after i shift to second gear) I mean its not regular racing jerk I feel like the transmission bites on the engines hard same sound you get when you dump the clutch trying to launch it wrong from 0 .

I kind of wish I payed 5 k more and got a brand new car instead of guessing if its my fault or something wrong with the car sigh lol

To me, it sounds like you aren't smoothing into 2nd.

 

[Frankiago]

Yeah I'm glad I paid that extra "peace of mind tax" to get my car with 7 miles on the odometer. I know of every fart that took place in my passenger seat, and I aim'z to keep it that way.

It sounds like he is dumping the clutch with no throttle at all. You need to roll into the throttle as you engage the clutch.
