This is the basic idea, use a proven system. Cable to mechanical. This is a MR2 system.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/members.cox.net-3782-1306300496.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/members.cox.net-3782-1306300497.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/members.cox.net-3782-1306300498.3.jpg) I am running a 930 transmission and its shifting characteristics are well known, it's a heavy slow gear change motivated me to try something else. The system works much better than the straight cable. My "H" pattern is flipped as I need to install a new shifter unit which matches the back side. I've only driven the car one day and I love the direct feel. It feels like a modern transmission now, well real close for sure. The 930 transmission shifts like a tractor LOL. I'm going to remove the transmission brace tomorrow, sand down everything and put a fresh coat of paint all around. |

I agree the cables work best in a straight line. The 930 only needs to twist a few degrees to move from 1-2 to 3-4 gates. good idea (now you've given me more work to do LOL) . I got the rubber parts from other apps via pick a part. The next project is to overhaul the clutch pedal, slave and related parts. I really don't like the pull slave and my clutch pedal setup needs a redesign. I'm looking to use a later model 911 pedal unit with a twist. |
