I saw this kit before on this forum, looks pretty cool. Adds paddle shifters for the 5AT.

I came across this video on youtube, the first 10 seconds had me laughing my *** off.

I've seen those before....it's a JDM universal kit.
Anyone have more info

Yes, Aspec is a sponser here on this site, do a search for paddle shifters and you will find thier thread, its 620.00 shipped!

that was pretty funny..

those are some laggy *** shifts

 

Found this video....maybe it's me but it seems like the tranny does not respond as quickly as the shifts are being made....

Kinda cool, but give me a 6MT anyday.

 

I have the kit installed on my G. It's pretty cool.

 

post pics!!!! Do it now!!!! I'm debating on installing this kit in the very near future and it's definitely on my list of future mods.

 

The only pic I have right now until the car comes out of the shop is the one I took when I received the kit. Bad thing is that the instructions are all in Japanese. But still pretty simple to follow. It's just the wiring that you have to make sure to do correct. I am also planning to purchase the upgrade for the auto transmission(I believe HKS makes it) The shifting should be superb...

 

Dont forget you have to have an aftermarket steering wheel for this paddle shifter to work. Wont work on the OEM wheel. I have contacted them before. $620 + a new wheel. Not worth the money.

 

I have the kit installed and it works fine. There is no additional lag in shifts. The kit merely splices into the factory tiptronic wiring and sends the signal just as the factory shift ****. My trans was rebuilt by SGP so my shifts are actually very firm and fast.

 

Since you cant use the stock wheel has anyone done a relocation with their cruise control yet?
