Rev match ruins the A-spec

[Spart]

I may have watched your video in the past and I'll check it out again. I appreciate the relative info!

Doubtful, just published it yesterday.

The rev match programming is obviously not the same with all makes, maybe not even within a make. My car has not demonstrated any rev overhang upshifting, and the rev match downshifting is very satisfactory. Shifting technique might need some adjustment for different cars, but I haven't found this one to be problematic at all.

Preach, brother. I was hoping to get more feedback from a spec owners. I guess I should stick to the Civic SI forums

Probably.

I like the rev match lol. I have had to adjust how I drive the car, and really the slipping of the clutch, and not dumping it on up or down shifts, and getting on the gas asap to get smooth up shifts. Almost don’t even take my foot off the gas, but just the pressure off the gas pedal when shifting. The rev hang is annoying and I notice when going WOT and trying to shift quickly

Yeah rev-match is S-tier.

By this logic, DCT is god-tier.

Auto rev-match is there to help you do something you're not good enough to do yourself. You can argue whichever way you want about it, and cope however you need to, but the reality is that it's one step removed from having an automated clutch pedal, and two steps removed from having a full-on automatic.

It makes daily driving nice where you don’t have to feel like you’re driving a race car to downshift while braking. It’s not that we aren’t capable.

Lack of effort is just as much of a character flaw, perhaps more of one, as lack of skill.

Auto rev match is literally this for manuals:

Just don't pretend it's something it's not.

It's a step on the spectrum towards having the car do 100% of the driving for you, and it replaces driver involvement.

If you're arguing to the contrary, you're just doing mental gymnastics to cope.

BuT iTs bEtTeR aT dOiNg iT tHaN yOu WiLL eVeR bE - I hate to break it to you, but Tesla Full Self Driving has surpassed humans in driver safety. Someone in a car with Tesla FSD will have an accident around 1/7th as often as a human driving unassisted.

So if you think "a computer is better at doing it" is a complete trump card of an argument, and you also aren't driving a Tesla with FSD, then by your own logic you are trying to get into an accident.

But you probably don't believe it's a complete trump card of an argument, meaning you don't even believe your own cope.

DCT will always be better. Power steering will always be better. Boosted brakes will always be better. Fuel injection will always be better. You found one weird hill to die on.

Besides all that, if you're not manually adjusting spark timing then you're not actually driving.

DCT will always be better.

Better at what?

Oh yes I forgot, having an extra half liter of displacement disqualifies me from posting. Good of you to point that out.

Just trying to keep things on topic. This whole thread others have been saying "what do you mean? Rev match isn't an issue in my completely different car. I've been driving for 30 years."
