says it works on 911 901's.... whats the dilly on this gate shifter? http://www.seinesystems.com/GateShift-901.htm
that works on the 915 style shift tower. to use it you need to modify and install the 915 tower to work with a 901 (they have different shift patterns)
So the 915 shifter will work on both the side shift and tail shift? With modification... of course.
people on the bird-board claim it works...
dunno, prolly does, but it looks like a DIY hackjob to me
plus, you'd need a 915 shifter housing
When time comes, I'm just gonna get me a RennShifter (new revised version coming soon) and be done with it
The guy who makes that kit is a friend of mine... I can assure you its not a hack job. His 69 RS conversion is BEAUTIFUL.
This is $150 plus a 915 shifter. The RennShift is a lot more. I think this is a less expensive alternative.

Mike, that looks like a prototype.
thats the one I saw.
I had this on my 73 911 I had. It was the more expensive one not the one with the hose clamps. It work pretty decent and it was easy to install. I never had a problem going into the wrong gear after it was installed.
Dont know how well it would work on a teener though.
Aaron, just get yourself a Rennshifter and be done with it. No looking everywhere trying to find all the right parts. The hassle alone is worth it.

I don't know if those work with 901 gearboxes in 914's, but they sure work well with 915 boxes in 914's. That is the setup I run. (the link above says it works with the 901)
Did anyone download that 500MB PDF file?

About the hoseclamp... IIRC, that's only used to fit the parts you're supposed to weld the tabs to the shift stick (like the second pic shows) |
The Seine shifter, fwiw, works great on a 911 w/ 901 or 915. It is a major pain to adapt a 915 housing to a sideshift 901, as you need to cut the eye off the 901 shift rod and tig it to the 915 rod at just the right depth-ie accounting for the fact that the 915 housing sits higher. No fun, took me almost 2 full days to get it done.
Say what?
the seine shift is still a hack job, always has been, and always will be
seine shift does work though
hose clamps sheesh
