Racing application. Who is using a gated shifter? Which one? Do you like it? Is it worth the expense? I've been fighting with shifting issues.. like finding 2nd when looking for 4th. Last episode ended with broken rocker arms. I've adjusted and replaced everything from the shifter to the solid trans mounts. It will do fine and then all of a sudden I've found second instead of 4th which results in a over rev. I have concentrated on my shifting and can't find a correlation to what causes this to happen. Any suggestions would be appriciated.
Thank you David |

Issue I was seeing was misalignment in hard turns when shift was on entry or exit. Hillclimb was the worst. And it seemed that issues happened the most as car was unloading from exit of a turn.
I went to firmer mounts and the previous mentioned linkage. I left my stock shifter in place and never had an issue again. I expereinced issues at the track prior to these mods. T2 at Infineon was a constant problem. Never had any issues at Laguna Seca put there were rarely any shifts under load at that track with my gearing. |
