One cable goes here: The cable that handles front to back shifter throw.

GET SOME.
Everything you need... right here. See how it handles the IN/OUT Motion and how it handles the SIDE to SIDE or rotation motion ?? B |

The only thing missing from the pics are the cables. I think something similar could be used on the 901 side or tail shift. The hockey stick on this box (almost identical to a 944 box..it is a Audi box) The Boxster 6 speed uses nothing llike this. Its a true cable shift box where as this is a reguler box like ours with conversion pieces on it.

Right now I'm open to ideas (because the end result is so far away). I'd have trouble putting Honda parts on my car too (yet Subaru parts don't bother me, imagine that).
We'll see. |

I'd be very interested in doing this mod to my son's 70 (the mystery shift car). I figure there is about $50 worh of bushings that need replacing now. So if I could replace the shifter for 4X that and end up with a precise shifter it would be worth it. Might make teaching him to drive a little easier.

QUOTE 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 ) but will require a different shift boot and mods the console if you have one. Coming soon... James Adams: Not being the immensely creative type myself, this appeals to me. Details? Pics? Availability? |
