Re:pulling with 6 speed????
Not only was that hard on your five speed but you were lugging the engine too. I don't think the six speed has the issue with the nut but it is still wise to keep your engine RPM in the torque band of 1400 rpm at the bottom. Personally, I keep mine over 1500 at all times.
