Powershifting (a.k.a. flat shifting, full throttle shift, or clutchless shift) is a method of shifting used with manual transmissions to reduce the time where the driving wheels are not powered.

Unlike a normal gearchange in a manual transmission, a powershift does not utilize the clutch at all. Instead, the gear lever is "ripped" from gear to gear. If tried with a road car, this can cause catastrophic damage if not selected in the right RPM range, especially if the gearbox doesn't have synchromesh.

This type of shifting is mainly used in racing applications with gearboxes that have been specifically designed for this purpose. In this application, powershifting does not put very much strain on the transmission; most of the stress is absorbed by the clutch and the rear differential.[citation needed] This is one of the reasons manual transmission cars break the differential more often than automatics

well that cant be good :P

for me when im "POWER SHIFTING" i don't let off the gas when i engage the clutch.which for me keeps the revs high enough to have constant power.....

Next up for ROCKLAND TOYOTA: powershifting a new transmission.

ROCKLAND TOYOTA · 09-25-2007, 03:30 PM

for most of the people on here that would be a problem, but seeing as im in good with the warranty rep i don't think at any mileage it would be a problem......

Black Yaris · 09-25-2007, 03:36 PM

I only wish my car could be as awesome as that Corolla....
Even coming from a Yaris owner...when a Yaris driver calls a Corolla a girly car...it's kind of like the pot calling the kettle black.

wow...that was a very dumb comment. way to powershift your economy car to a near 17 second time.. powershift and yaris don't belong in the same sentence. good job risking your transmission to beat a girl driving an automatic corolla...im not sure i would want to be bragging about that

jeremyshay · 09-29-2007, 12:25 PM

lol. i had an 02 rolla s. i loved it. it could PULL! she just couldnt drive maybe :?
either way, ive raced a few people in both cars, the rolla took the spotlight most though... thats why a turbo or sc is being considered for the yarii :)

Duartizzle · 09-29-2007, 02:30 PM

wow. that is such crap. i think the yaris is a total entry level chick car. i mean look at the front end of both the sedan and the hatch, its so non-aggressive looking. and i mean, no "manly" type car comes with an engine that has less than 110 hp.
