eh nope. I dont think so. Mine seem easy to drive, although my swapped RS is a bit harder to engage smoother, but its a heavier duty clutch than stock.

My STi is doing awesome. Almost 50,000 miles (on a 2005, I know yikes!) it has been launched numerous times, is putting out more power than a stock STi and the clutch still has no signs of any slippage.

WooT!

yes, since you’ve gotten those driving lessons from your wife you’ve been doing very well. :bigthumb:

… and no, there doesnt seem to be anything “funny” about any of the ones i have ever driven.

I’ve gone from a stock WRX to a stock STi, and I think the STi did take some getting used to.
