Would anyoen be interested in a Chrome gated shifter?



does having one of these ferrari type shifters make the Z look better?

 

Looks are a matter of opinion 100% of the time. It really wouldn't look good with the style of shifter the Z has. For that you need a skinny shifter to look right. You would also have to get one made to fit the circular hole for the shift boot.

 

looks like it'd get in the way

 

i'd like one

 

Would you be interested in a big glass of STFU?

 

Thats not a good idea nor would it look good at all. Leave it for the Ferrari.

 

Just so you know....i came up with this idea while working @ AAM and after hours of R&D that sytle of shifter gate just wouldn't cut it with teh overlap we have in our shift pattern....basically unlike ferri transmissions or gate slides and does not have enough play in neutral to make it over to the slotted gates for a shift plate such as that....the only aftermarket style gate you can have built would resemble the Volvo S60 where one plate slides over another hiding the shift pattern.....

gross

 

Wouldnt work.

 

no

 

nope!

 

Also wouldn't work because the trans shifts under acceleration in relation to the body of the car due to the torque and rubber motor mounts. I bet the Ferrari shifters arn't mounted straight to the trans like ours...

 

Not my cup of tea... but if anybody has one installed in their Z I'd like to see it.

 

don't like it

 

nahhh... i never liked those
