But the suzuki had a gear box which means you can wring it's neck, the 182 does not,
182 yeah i'm doing 7kRPM, then by the time you've changed gear (in a none gearbox breaking way) the engine has dropped down to tickover nearly, then you bring the clutch back up and the engine screams back up...
Gearbox is worst I've used in any car I've driven. Notchy s**te tbh.
The long shift is fine, doesn't bother me.
And it's not the seats, it's where everything is in relation.
I find the technique is not to simply push the gearstick into gear, have to kind of "work" it in, hard to describe, i find most of the gears on the 1*2s are like that.
Fair one, I think it's stiff, stiffest clutch i've ever used, i personally don't have any problems but could see how some would, only problem with what you've done is insurance
