clutches are technically wear items, transmissions are not (which might explain why they're covering one, but not the other). and yes, 6k RPM clutch drops are abuse.

how old r u Crazy? yea reving up 6rpm is too much, redline is 7000 so basically u never want to past revline or u will do damage, it takes only a split second for 6000rpm to hit 7000rpm and by that time u dont have time to shift so it results in passing the redline and blowing the tranny. its kool, as long as u got a WRX, u can play with it all the time =)

yea basically from 6krpm to 7krpm u wont have time to shift, and thatll hurt ur tranny since u were gassing it, and gassing it will make the needle hit 7krpm in a split second. and past redline in a split second and then ouch.
