Hi,

Gear selection is typically bad, and fast changes impossible. I am going to replace all the bushes, and have already ordered the Tangerine Racing firewall bush. The Rennspeed shift lever looks like it would help too. Can anyone comment please ? I am mystified as to what this aluminium disc is supposed to do, any ideas ?

Thanks,
Tony.

To be fair I actually bought it from a collector who bought it from John. However John was less than helpful when I rang him to talk about the car. I am not bleating as of course I didn't have to buy it. I wanted it because it's an unusual car here in the U.K. It has cost me less money than the racehorses I used to own, and they all love it at my local Porsche Owners Club !

You should also install Foley's rear shift linkage assembly. I had one of the first ones, and it made a huge difference in the tightness of the entire assembly. And it shifted as fast as you could go smoothly and still not destroy the syncros. But, to be honest, autoxing always did seem to have an effect on second gear syscros.
