its supposed to make shifts super quick. so, yes.

 

It probably makes the shifts faster in manual and auto, more agressive the higher up the revs are it sounds like. Or maybe it has to do with the throttle, if its 100% open it may shift a lot faster. It's probably something we should make a new thread on in the engine section.

 

Thats cool,
i agree we should have a new thread that talks about this, if theres not one already made.

I printed out some plans, and have a list of machine shops to check out tomorrow. The one part may need to use a 4 or 5 Axis milling machine.

 

There are already several threads on the VB upgrade in the Engine & Powertrain Section . . .

 

Ok here is a sample rendering to wet your apatite

 

fixed



Good stuff!

Does anybody that have these know if the shifts are delayed like shown in that video im really curious.And is it true that these are faster than a 6mt.Thanks

 

from what i understand and that others have said that the bell have a delay in shifting. I dont own one but from the pictures i have seen is that there paddles have a single pole momentary switch that controls a module that inturns send a signal to the BCM for shifting, and thats were the small delay is at. Its like using one light switch to control another light switch to turn the light on.


Haha, thanks for the correction i was in a hurry to post the image up. After i send the plans in, ill post up more of what the paddles look like
I stopped by a machine shop today afterwork, they'll give me a quote on monday, but there is one part thats is going to need a 5-axis milling machine to make.

 

Thanks for the update, James!

And since AlvinHuyN is selling his car, I'm taking him off the list and here is the revised one (yeah, I'm now #1)!

Good **** man cant wait to see the results!!!

 

i love how this is coming together, so what other transmission mods should i get?

 

Hi again a weekly update. Got a quote from a local machine shop and ill have to add up the prices and math it out over 10-20 units. Also will be finishing up the drawing this weekend, had a lot of drawings todo. Plus im going to try and work on drawings for the other 2nd project too

Im getting excited about getting them made as i want one in my car too.
I been driving my car with my old style proto-type in manual mode alot. Just love it, LOVE it.

 

Good to hear. Do you have any rough ballpark estimates?

Cant wait to see what else youve got in store... thanks for the update

 

Ill get the rough estimates by the end of the week. My dad does all the money stuff

 

hmm, interesting.

Ohhh. How about a shifter Delete as a project.
I need a new cupholder

 

Can you post any videos on the prototype you have of it????

 

Man, hurry up, James! I've got a track event next month with the Porsche Club of America and I want to show off the paddle shifters to these Porsche owners. I want them to know our Zs are cool!

 

sounding better each week. can not wait to see the final product

 

Did you get a rough estimate yet?

 

Yes i did, but i have to add them up. Because they quoted each part sepratly. My dad was suppost to do that today but he got lazy but thats what happens when you retire LoL

Ill nag him tomorrow, hes asleep now.
