I had an idea that I've found on at least on car before. I'd like to raise the shift knob to better clear my new Momo seat and be closer to the steering wheel. My idea is to combine and extended shift lever with a short shift kit. I'd expect I could work it so I have nearly the same resolution and shifting speed as to not wear out the brake bands.
Opinions? This is the car I found that did it: http://www.914club.com/bbs2/index.php?show...p;mode=threaded |
