Car jerks if not shifted at right rpm???, What could cause this? Options

[str8thugginit4ya]

Hey guys, I know you're probably thinking from the title that I'm probably not shifting and driving the car right. But, I like to think that I'm an okay driver and I know a thing or two about how to drive a manual. My main problem that I have is that whenever I'm shifting from 1st to 2nd, or any gear for that matter, and I don't rev match it perfectly it jerks a LOT. Now I compared the jerking to my brothers Infiniti G20, and whenever I don't rev match perfectly when shifting, the clutch just catches the gear back and goes on driving. No jerking or anything. Could it be my bushings that are bad in my suspension? Or maybe my clutch needs changing?I know for a fact that I don't ride the clutch, but what could be going wrong. I'm not saying that I'M not doing anything wrong here, but I just wanted to know if this is a sign of something going bad??? Any help would be appreciated.


-Thanks, Ryan

check your clutch master and slave cylinder. If either one of those is shot your car may act like your dropping the clutch even though you are applying smooth pedal effort. You'll be surprised at all the funny things a messed up master or slave can cause (i should know) -_-

Thank for the help bro! I'm a novice when it comes to the clutch master and slave cylinder. Where exactly would that be located and how would I know if it's gone bad or not???
