Is there anyone else out there that has had an issue / difficulty removing the stock shift **** from the Z like i have? I twisted skin off of my hands trying to get this thing off literally. With both my Evo and Sti before was a simple twist off with a little amount of pressure to change a shift ****. I Used vicegrips, hammer, saw for my Z. I have an 04 Z 30k Miles. took ownership of it a few months back. Car has Almost 10 years with stock shift ****. Until I changed it just recently. I ended up removing the shift assembly and took out the **** screwed on to the Lever in order to get it off had to do some damage. No damage was done to any shifting assembly, lever or Transmission. Just the ****. Here is what it looks like now.


I also noticed some kind of Glue or sealer once it was all off? Is that common for the 350z?




Enjoy.

I'm assuming the person before you thought glue would solve the problem...... Mine unscrews fine. They might have stripped it a little and didn't want it to slip around

Seems myself and a few others have had this problem. but majority seem to say it's an easy twist off.
