  1. I agree. The 915 transmission takes a bit of work to shift. In the first 2 years of owning a '79 911SC - I thought there was something wrong with the transmission - until I considered how old this technology is. 1979 was a long time ago and I can't expect it to shift like a late model car. So I tried something - add a bit of revs before shifting. Voila - the shifting is about as smooth as it can get in a modern car. I also read somewhere that a 915 doesn't like being told when it wants another gear - you have to feel it. Sure enough - when you can "feel" the tranny wanting another gear - it shifts like butter. It definitely helps to give it a bit of revs prior to the shift. Oh yeah, when you can time the revs and the shift - I guarantee a grin on the face because the sound, the feel and the acceleration will work hand in hand and make you realize it takes a bit of work to do this right. But get it right and whoa!
