As I known, the gear indicator in bright / dim meaning the drive shafts
is connected / disconnected.
Normally,when using clutch activate mode, the gear indicator was always Dim in "N", whatever you push or release the clutch.
But one day I found that this not true...

I didn't know how its come out, I just remember the day I doing some silly action because get boring ,so I stop the car then pulling the shift stick and step release the clutch repeatedly without any sense, talking on phone with friend, but the eye is looking at the gear indicator( without any sense also).
Suddenly I got the scene in the picture.
After this ,I repeat the silly action & try it 3/5 times, can shift into bright "N" unstably.
If I step on the gas, the car will go quickly then in the Dim "N" gear,but still slower then 1 gear.

Anyone know what exactly it's?
I know maybe everyone will said this is mean nothing & can't doing anything with this in the game.
Just ask curiously ~:nervous:

Never seen this before, good find 👍

I dont have a G25/7 so i cant test for myself but i thank you for the extra piece of info :)
 
If this action can apply stably , I think we can do the double clutch action whatever it's useful or not, just for fun! :dopey:
 
I found this when I was playing around on the Top Gear track. Seems like a bug where is reports Neutral but is actually in gear. Was driving the '88 3.0L Supra at the time.
 
I've had this happen a handfull of times. It seems like the ratio is always a gear you were about to shift into, so its seems like it did actually shift gears but it just displays N instead.
 
I have seen this too and found that it has come up when I have mistimed the gear change...for example changing from 2nd to 3rd but releasing the clutch before I have actually got it into 3rd

Hope that helps
