Just doing some planning on the shifter set up.
I have a side shifter already. Installing a Seine shifter on the 911 was one of the best things I ever did. Tangerine's shifter set up appears to be the gold standard. Would the best plan of attack be to go with the Tangerine set up and then see how I like it before popping for the Seine shifter? Does the Tangerine kit usually make a Seine set up unncessary? Thanks in advance for the help. |

Good morning, hope you're both having a good weekend.
I believe Seine does have an option for the 901, although I've never installed/driven one that has it. I just really like their kit on my other car, so I put them on the shortlist of options. I don't believe their kit falls under a short shifter category, I think it's probably more accurate to consider it a gated shifter as has been suggested. Thank you for the heads up on the short shifter kits probably not being the way to go, I did come across that via searching past discussions here. I know some of this, as has also been suggested, is down to personal opinion but does the tangerine kit clean things up to a point where most people are happy with the standard shifter? Thanks! |

My experience: With a side shift tranny, along with the Tangerine linkage system and a good stock shifter, it was satisfactory but difficult to adjust perfectly. Just added a new RennShifter - was easy to install/adjust, now have a precision feel with a nice "gate like" improvement - worth the cost. |
