Alright everybody, going to be tackling putting in my rennshift on my car.
There is a lot of things/ products out there. There is lots of talk of the tangerine firewall bearing and new bushings. Is that all the recommendations? Not looking to go crazy, but looking to do things that make sense and will make the car shift better. A bit less stick in the mud... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Prefer recommendations including where to source the parts required. Thank you in advance. |

The shifting on a 914 is only as good as it's weakest link. New bushings are the minimum. The tangerine firewall bushing is worth every penny. I like the Rennshifters but they are a bigger commitment and a waste of money if your trans need rebuilding but they are hardly ever for sale used so that sort of goes to their popularity and effectiveness.
Make sure your engine and trans mounts are in good condition. |
