Anyone near Los Altos have one installed in their car? I'd like to see how yours feels dry shifting into 2nd so I can make sure mine is adjusted (if there is such a thing) correctly. I'm having a tough time selecting second, either up from first or down shifting from third and I'm thinking it is either the spring setup or some other adjustment. Of course I am shifting a lot harder than you would on the street, but if the shifter isn't installed correctly it just makes it worse. Thanks. |

I have the early version of the Rennshift. I've adjusted it several times over the years and it takes a bit getting used to to get it just right. Now mine shifts like butter through all gears.

Let me know what day is good for you and I'll come over. I'll even bring my Rennshifter as it is just about out of the car. Maybe you can show me how to properly adjust the unit. Lunch sounds great as well. |
