Hi guys, I spotted on this video, between minute 15:15 and 15:45, what it seems to be a rev matching function for the manual transmission. Do you think is this correct?
Have a nice day
Looks like setting the gear shift buzzer, launch control or rev matching would be amazing.Unfortunately not. I'm pretty sure it's all about setting up launch control procedure.
I'd actually be happiest if it does not have rev matching. Too many cars today automatically do it as soon as you engage sport mode. In some, you can't even turn it off.
In a simple lightweight car like this, I'd rather manage engine myself.
Thank god, I hate auto revmatching. Thankfully it's almost always able to be turned off.According to @Chris Tonn AMA there is no auto-rev match in the GR86.
If it was a full Toyota bred sports car it would’ve definitely had that iMT trans with the auto rev matching feature you can turn on or off. But it’s a great transmission either way.Thank god, I hate auto revmatching. Thankfully it's almost always able to be turned off.
I completely understand but just nice to have the feature to me personally and I was wondering if there is an after market for itI have to agree with the other guys. I would not want auto rev match. As silly as it sounds this car is about purity. I feel all those gimmicks just lead to people thinking they are much better drivers than they really are. Then they end up getting false confidence when the car does most of the real work for them. They end up getting into a driving situation that requires actual skill or a quick response and end up in a ditch or against a wall.
Yes, a few (like ecutek) tuning software can add these. No one knows for sure when they will come out, but the expectations are this year. You also have entire replacement ECU hardware (that comes with software to do this) which will no doubt also make an appearance sometime soon.Does anyone know if it’s possible to add Toyotas IMT in the aftermarket? Or something similar that is not the “auto-blip” device since I heard that isn’t good for everyday driving.
Very cool I’ll keep my eye out for it thenYes, a few (like ecutek) tuning software can add these. No one knows for sure when they will come out, but the expectations are this year.

I don't understand this take. More options and features only benefit the consumer, especially if they're configurable.I have to agree with the other guys. I would not want auto rev match.

Because once you add that option it will become hard to resist I guess. I kind of am one of those people to be honest, I would probably find myself losing any heal and toe skill because its automated by just selecting it, even though I love heal and toe driving and find it adds to the satisfaction. So yeah I'm glad its not in their on its own just for my own weakness for being lazy!I don't understand this take.

For what it's worth, today's Civic Si is actually cheaper when adjusted for inflation. $17,860 (Si starting MSRP) in 1999 is $30,139 in 2022. The 2022 Civic Si's starting MSRP is $27,300.Stuff like that is why a civic that should cost$16k now costs $28k
