i get the 1st/2nd without adding gas...but 3rd is a bit of a reach without gassing, no?
Could just be short gearing but I can easily have my integra in 3rd,idling at like 400pm around a parking lot 😁 Honda torque bro

Once I mastered that, I was allowed to use the gas and accelerate. My civic was no easier or harder to drive than that. I actually find newer cars harder as they are quieter and don't vibrate as much.
This is the best way to learn . Taught my brother and friends like this and they were all able to drive on their own the next day .

Thanks guys, I ended up finding a friend who just so happen to be learning manual too, and he let me used his car to learn. After an hour or so, i pretty much got the hang of it. Although i stalled a couple of times at a light due to nervousness and letting go of the clutch thinking it was the engagement point but it was fun! it's definitely interesting that that i am problem solving my errors, and figuring out constantly how to get myself to drive better! For anyone wishing to learn and worried you will get the hang of it, and its not that bad!
