A friend of mine does small scale manufacturing of different custom gadgets for cars and such. Recently he started making shift *****, primarily for toyotas, I asked him if he can conjure up something along the lines of nismo *****, but made of delrin (plastic/resin compound used all over the place). I did not want to have a scorching metal ****, so was really looking forward to this one. Long story short - I'm very impressed.





Post up if you'd like to have these things made for you - they will be much cheaper than Nismo and safer for your hands

He does several different styles and is open to custom orders.

I don't want to violate any "advertizing" plicies, so I'll keep his contact info out of this thread for now. He does it more for fun, and does not make millions on his little goodies, but I'm sure he'll be happy to have some Z customers.

 

is that finisher built in or is that the ball **** washer

and PM me a price for the same ****. I was having trouble finding the GT **** in rubber anyway. is it a hard or slightly soft material?

I was thinking slightly more rounded and shorter.

 

Looks very nice!

 

Nice.... more info. What is that wrapped in?

 

How is the color added? Is it painted or mixed into the delrin? I'm only familiar with natural colored delrin, which we use alot of here where I work.

 

It's pretty hard solid plastic - not wrapped in anything, the collar is a separate piece that I asked him to add to his standard "nismo" style ****.

I'm sure he can make it shorter and more rounded.

Will PM his info.

 

I like the looks of it. How does it compare in width and height to the Nismo shift ****?

 

looks like he can make it however wide and long you need according to this post

 

How much would this be? Very interested in the one in the pics. I've been looking for a nismo leather.. now I'm debating between the leather or this.

 

I like it. How can I order one?

 

I haven't seen a real nismo **** in person - local dealer does not stock them. But if you can get the measurments to the guy - he can replicate it to the exact specs.

Mine has a weighted metal core inside, and this can be an option if he can get several orders to justify purchase of a brass rod. Like I said - he's doing it on relatively small scale, so if we can get him rolling, he'll be able to get them out for about $60 with a brass core.

 

Ok, I'll post the contact info here.

Mods, if it's violating any policies - let me know, and I'll see what I can do about making it official before nuking the thread

There is an email link on the page - let the guy know directly what kind you want, weighted or not and please mention that it's for 350Z - the thread is different from toyotas (that's what he does mostly now).

 

I emailed him with my wants. I like it but want it slightly shorter.

weighted as well, so we will see.

 

very nice ****, i'm interested as well

 

I like it.

 

can he make one for automatic 350z XD Im not joking though seriously can he?

 

I would definitely ask him. There is no reason I can think of why he wouldn't be able to make one.

 

went to the website, tried "contact us" since there's no email link. no reply so far.. can you give me his direct email?

 

Looks like a nice piece

 

That looks HUGE compared to my nismo ****, which is probably a good thing. I couldn't believe how small it was when I got it in the mail.
