Transmissions with “syncro” gears do not require a double clutch technique. Double clutching is required to properly shift transmissions without syncro gears which are typically found on racecars. The NSX and all modern street cars have syncro gears. These are the gears that make the grinding noise when you mess up a shift. The gears act to spin up the countershaft (I think) to the proper speed so that easy gear engagement is possible on a downshift.DanO[This message has been edited by DanO (edited 11 March 2002).]
