May the best ss win.

That rubber boot really does suck, dosen't it.
Need girlly hands to put it back on.

 

does B&M still have the notchness like stock shifter?

 

Yes.

 

ohh crap I forgot to put the rubber boot back on yesterday.....back under the car i go...errrrrr

 

Now just to clarify the Rogue s.s. eliminates the notchiness???

 

from what I've read, and felt on one of the forum member's car, yes, it does get rid of the notchiness.. there is only one click when shifting, instead of two..

 

I had the B&M and I now have the Rogue installed.

And the winner and now preferred shifter … is … ROGUE !!

The B&M shifter offers a very short throw (good and notchy). However, my problems were twofold:

1. The B&M had a slight buzz while high revving in 2nd gear.

2. The faster the revving – the more difficult it was to upshift and downshift with the B&M … very difficult to engage. If the B&M shifted as well at high revving as it does during low RPM’s … I would vote this as the shifter of choice.


Shifting with the Rogue is a pure delight … very easy and very fluid upshifting and downshifting. As posted by others, the Rogue shifter engages each gear with a precise click and you know and feel that it’s in. The Rogue is not notchy. It has very smooth, clean throws with a “click”. There is absolutely no noise, no buzzing, or no rattles … quiet as a church mouse.

Summary: The Rogue is excellent and works extremely well in my Z.

 

glad you're happy with it! now you know what i'm talkin' about, "smoothness."

n1cK!

 

n1cK! ...

You were right on ... "SMOOTH" ... she said, after entering each gear.

Love the Rogue !

 

ok, I'm sold.. where can I get Rogue Eng. shifter with the best price? thanks!

 

as far as i know, you could only get it here. it's kind of pricey, much more than the B&M, but well worth the price, IMHO.

n1cK!

 

Note the "only" time I've have ever noticed increased vibration with the Rouge vs. OEM was at rapid deceleration in 5th gear at higher RPMs. For example, when removeing foot from accelrator at >120mph in 5th. Most may not have replicated this scenario, nor have the same exact set of variables. Vibration is subjective from car to car , etc.. etc. my case Adding a little air gap between the guide plate and "nub" resolved this audible vibration.

 

I was looking at the 350evo.com website and noticed that they are coming out with a new s.s.... has anybody heard anything about this one????


FairladyZ in Japan, thank you for your review. The negatives I doubted about B&M have been realized. I appreciate it!


With the exception of the new upcoming s.s. from 350evo, I'm sold.

 

If 350EVO is working on a new SS, I'm sure it will be sweet and work like a champ. All there other in-house stuff seems to work great.

 

someones been snooping around.

 

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Any information on the upcoming short shifter???

 

It will allow for shorter......smoooooother shifting.
There are also some shift ***** coming.

Cheers

Will the throw be shorter than the Rougue SS?

 

I believe its the same reduction over OEM. Going to short will induce the notchyness.....you start loosing leverage.

 

BJ,

If I'd known you guys were going to do your own SS I'd of waited.......
