Just doing some planning on the shifter set up.

I have a side shifter already.

Installing a Seine shifter on the 911 was one of the best things I ever did.

Tangerine's shifter set up appears to be the gold standard.

Would the best plan of attack be to go with the Tangerine set up and then see how I like it before popping for the Seine shifter?

Does the Tangerine kit usually make a Seine set up unncessary?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Zero question in my mind, the best setup is a Rennshifter in your hand and Tangerine the rest of the way to the tranny. That's where I'm going after I get the synchros... or the box gone through by the good evil Dr.

I'm so tired of the stir stick and grinding and downshifting into 3rd before first to fudge synchros, can't get into first cleanly, yada yada. Every 914 I've ever had (only 5) has been plagued with this. Ironically my one tailshifter was the best of the bunch, because it wasn't bagged out with wear.

Clearly the tranny wasn't engineered for longevity. But remember, fix it right, improve it along the way, and enjoy it for 30+ years.

If only we could lure him out to our region somehow...
