WTB: S15 6-Speed Short Shift

[dave_t]

Feel like going for a short shift on the S15, anyone have one for-sale?

Becoming very hard to find, try Ebay...C's make the best short shifter...I love mine and don't get caught up in the old wives tale that they destroy your gearbox

 

[dave_t]

Yeah, iv'e browsed no and again and never found any. Someone must have one they want to get rid of :wave:

The c's shifter is discontinued which is why you won't find one. That's the only one that works on the 6 speed too.
There was a company in the traders section who were going to produce one but that thread ha seen quiet for a while now

 

[Auss15]

Yes I don't understand why Nismo made short shifters for S13, S14's and only the S15 5 speed box...Maybe keep an eye on Yahoo auctions Japan...

 

[pegliobaglio]

Makes no sense, I'm sure a lot of people on here would have one if someone were to do a run of them

 

[pegliobaglio]

And because I'm nice. Well more I can't spend the money as I need my turbo lol found this http://m.gumtree.com.au/v?adId=1027193787

Good find, that's here in Aus ...

sorry to bump an old thread i got one of the C's shifters from fast hands, if anyone knows a way or what company's to get in touch with that could duplicate it id be happy to look into it just wouldn't know where to start.

 

[pegliobaglio]

That would be a great idea mate, will ask about work next to dan @ db power he may know of someone

I spoke to GK Tech about having one made and they potentially would be interested but would need 50-100 people interested before starting the project at the minute with all the other stuff they have one..

i suppose getting one made would depend on what type of quality people would want... i guess having it drawn up it CAD would be relatively easy then it would just be a case of getting some made..

I was searching for ages for a C's Shifter, because my shifter always felt like it had a long throw, but on closer examination, it wasnt so much a long throw, but sloppyness in the Bush.

i decided to changed the Nylon shifter bush (see below) and it has tightened the shifter up and it feels amazing now.

 

[Auss15]

That's a cheaper option and will make the shifter feel tighter. The short throw that you get from a C's shifter though is a something that makes the gear changes feel like a real sports car.

 

[dave_t]

it felt doubly good on mine as when i removed the shifter, i found the nylon bush had popped off the ball, so the cup was only partially holding the ball. Feels brand new now.

Anyone contacted c's to see if they'd doa one off run our group buy?

 

[sammos13]

C's files for bankruptcy in japan a couple of years ago apparently so that would be a no go

Anyone contacted c's to see if they'd doa one off run our group buy?

 

[sammos13]

i could potentially have the c's one drawn up.. currently posing a couple of questions to see if we think this can be done... would just need the C's template..

Im also in need of a short shift for a spec R
