IIRC, I tweaked the opening w/ a small crescent so that the opening is offset then they drop right in. After that straighten the opening back in line. Does that make sense? If not I'll shoot a photo. The next snag on that shifter is the 8mm stud. You need to grind it off and weld in a 1/4" stud for the heim joint. Clearances get tight between the shifting mechanisms and you may need to file the head of a bold down. Or use clevis pins for more clearance. And that pillow is a great comfort to my ancient old ass.

Or you could bend the mechanisms to the left some.

I would of put a photo over at NARP but didn't have a place to put it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

This is what I came up with. I did have the same interference. one other thing that helped me is moving the pivot mount on the shift shaft up a little. I moved it up and down and bent the shaft forward and back more than once looking for the best feel and location. Moving the pivot up gives you a shorter shift stroke. this can also be changed by the rear linkage. The spring on the left is my reverse lock out. It keeps naturally in 2nd and 3rd position. A little resistance to 1st and reverse. I also had to cut open the cable slots and relocate them forward or aft for some reason.
The riser is offset and tilted to the driver and up in the front.

And yes, I had a cushion too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Ruby is your shift from an earlier MR2 (AW11)and the others are the later models (SW20)?
In the pics they look like different base plates.

I have no idea. I did a lot of cutting and bending. That's how it is now.
Honestly I don't recall. Now that I look at others, I may have made a completely new base plate out of 4" tube? I'm getting old. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slits.gif)

Are you able to produce something that neat for the 901 box
I was never a fan of bending and twisting the cables so your bell crank system looks fantastic
Cheers

Well I am planning on building a system for the 901 side shift but a bell crank with that setup might b a bit more tricky to pull off... Then again really need to sit down and look at it before I know for sure.

Ian,
I saw a cable shift folder on my laptop at home. It had Catia files. Not sure what is in there, they may give you some ideas, I'll take a look when I get home. It is hard to see but I used somewhat of a bellcrank system. This is from NARP.

Well, the name of the folder is Cable tail shift.
I had this on the car until I broke first gear. I didn't make a cad file for the side shift but it works about the same way. Bell crank operates a brass or nylon, pivoting and sliding block that pushes and pulls the shift shaft in and out.

Why is that photo a download? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Once I have half shafts and shifting in, I can start on my exhaust.

Anybody want to go halves on a exhaust cut out? they come in pairs....
