Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Oh!, Thank You!!! ... I`m Glad that you Liked it! The Metal Shifter is Heavy, but it Adds Shiftin` Attitude. it is Brand: "Jiealöda" from Germany; I know that many people Won`t believe that, but Little Changes like this can give a Very Different Driving Experience on a Car.

bobjr94 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I made a shorter & short throw shifter when I put a 5 speed in my brat. I cut out about 2 1/4 inches of the middle of the shifter (top arrow) and welded it back together. Then cut the bracket from the shifter(bottom arrow) and move it up about 1 inch and welded it back on. The further the bracket from the pivot point the less the shifter will need to be moved for each gear. So now the shifter sits a little lower and feels much better. BTW: I had an aluminum shifter ball on my wrx, it froze your hand in the winter and burned it in the summer. Ill stick the a rubberery one.

hatchsub Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 Awesome. I didnt really want to shorten the throws between gears because it isnt a performance tranny and I didnt want it to be harder to shift. I had thought about it though. Im curious, how does the tranny feel with the shortened throws? Does it engage normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
