Good time for you folks to get a Rennshift... the fuse panel replacement is also a good upgrade.


(OK, found a couple things I needed- order placed!)

Benefit of the 2 inch longer shift handle on a 914. Does it sit to high? Or was it more a for 911 to bring shifter closer to driver. want to get the right one. Do most people that buy for the 914 use the stock height or the 2 inch longer?

Have the stock height (length) shift handle on both my cars. Feels fine. Longer one would seem to be too close IMHO...

The longer stick is really nice in a 911. It is a little too much for some people in a 914, but it really depends on how you sit and the length of your arms, legs, etc. It does require a smaller than stock steering wheel in a 914.

Default (to me) is stock for 914 and extended for 911.

James,

I need to get an upper shift stick, for a really old generation of shifter
from looking at the web site, I'm betting the new generation stick is different.
Do you have any old style upper sticks for sale?

No sorry, I only sold that type of shifter in 2003 and 2004, so any extras are long gone. You can get a variety of sticks from Hurst that will fit. Go here.

Jwest, after looking at brant's pictures, it looks like i'm missing the reverse lockout and the shifter stops on my old style rennshift....do you see this as a potential problem/issues? I just got my car and haven't driven a whole lot yet....also, i am definitely ordering parts on this sale....thanks!

The reverse lockout was an optional extra for that shifter. The gate springs are the real lockout, the pawl is only for when you do something stupid, like forget the shift pattern. Under normal shifting the lockout will never fully engage against its stop.

The stops are just extra protection for the linkage/bushings/transmission parts if you shift too hard. If you shift properly, they will not come into play.

I just ordered my side shift jwest shifter. Excited to see how it works out. All bushings were replaced 6 months ago. That made the stock shifter a lot better. This is the next step.

If you calculate the discount you will see it is 10% and the shipping charge - $12 in your case ($4 + $8 shipping). The discount is taken off the products and leaves the shipping in place which would help with anyone paying taxes.

It is a little confusing (I didn't write that part of the software) but I think it is better since the tax can be quite a bit on a shifter order.
