alright, since i absolutley hate the auto tranny on my car, and cant really afford to swap to a 5speed, latley ive been just shifting it, from 1 to 2 and so on and downshifting also, cant really explain it but i like driving it that way better, basically what i want to know is if this is going to kill my tranny, or hurt it in anyway, thanks

I think its the best way to kill your tranny besides going directly from forward to reverse.

the ecu still shifts for u, so i don't see the problem. it just holds each gear just a little longer. i've been doing it for 5yrs or more.

thats good to hear, but im getting to the point where im doing it while im daily driving, not just racing or when i driving fast, is this what ur doing as well
