Hi,
Gear selection is typically bad, and fast changes impossible. I am going to replace all the bushes, and have already ordered the Tangerine Racing firewall bush. The Rennspeed shift lever looks like it would help too. Can anyone comment please ? I am mystified as to what this aluminium disc is supposed to do, any ideas ? Thanks, Tony.

It looks like a custom retainer for a broken firewall bushing.
If you're lucky, the screw hole will line up with one of the rivet holes for the new firewall bearing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Just thought it weird to do something like that. It's not like new bushings are mega expensive are they ? |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) The bushings are cheap enough but if you don't have one on hand, and you do have an assortment of metal bits floating around... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) On the other hand, a proper replacement should have been installed at the first opportunity. |
