I'm interested in cable shift kits, which the way i figure it don't have to be Porsche specific. I'm thinking about fabricating the parts necessary to make a tailshift tranmission run with a race-style cable shifter.
The problem is all i can find are shifters for automatics. I'm guessing web research isn't going to cut it. Things this specific are often hard to find. With that said, I was going to do this for just the standard 901, but perhaps such solutions don't exist unless you're running a 915? |

On the WEVO shifter - if you guys can wait a couple weeks (maybe less) I will have a comparable shifter to the WEVO for about half its price.
It will be available for both side shifter and tail shifter applications, and have the option of stock or short shift throws. Spring loaded gates, precise feel, and a bolt-on stick so you can tailor it to the length and angle you like. It will bolt in to the stock shifter position (you still need to fix all those bushings you have been meaning to take care of (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)) but will require a different shift boot and mods the console if you have one. Coming soon... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
