It is not made in a manual.

However, it’s not exactly accurate to just call this an “auto stick”.

Also, if your name has ‘skyline’ in it, you should know this.

You might want to learn about what you speak of before you speak of it.

Some items about the GTR R35:

# 6-speed **Dual Clutch** Transmission with three driver-selectable modes: Normal (for maximum smoothness and efficiency), Snow (for gentler starting and shifting on slippery surfaces), and R mode (for maximum performance with fastest shifts).

# Fully automatic shifting or full **sequential manual control** via gearshift or steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

# Dual clutch design changes gears in **less than 0.5 second (0.2 second in R mode)**.

# Downshift Rev Matching (DRM).

# Predictive pre-shift control (in R mode) based on throttle position, vehicle speed, braking and other information.

i really would like to know more about these paddle shifters, i really dont know a thing about them…

Do they automatically rev match when you downshift?

Are you supposed to take your foot off the gas when tapping one of the paddle shifters as if shifting a manual car?

do you HAVE TO downshift when coming to a stop, or will it behave like a regular automatic car and downshift as it sees appropriate?

is it like a motorcycle, where neutral is somewhere between 1st and 2nd…i’m assuming there has to be a neutral for when one is stopped at a light, or in traffic…etc…

so many things i dont know about how they work…
