oh wow thats nice! Perrin does it again!

Turbowned · 03-15-2013, 05:09 PM

I don't get it.

(I do get it, but I wouldn't buy it)

Remind me again why I would need this? Does your car not have a lockout?

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess its a bling thing?

Someone needs to release a polished steel short shifter version. I had a C's version on my MKIV SupraTT, and it looked and felt awesome. One of the best mods ever.

Because some people would rather not have to feel (and look at) that cheap plastic lockout lever every time they get in their car. Same reason for any cosmetic modification.

90 bucks is steep. I'm sure it feels nice and the shifter is certainly a common touch point but I would rather put that money to a set of overly expensive clear side markers.

I totally forgot about the lever thing, I keep thinking if I shift into 6 it's Reverse since my last car was 5 speed manual

OrbitalEllipses · 03-15-2013, 09:38 PM

No, I bought a short shifter for $200 that already had a lockout lever. If you're gonna spend $90 for cosmetics....might as well get a short shifter that increases performance AND cosmetics. Mine's milled Delrin and not aluminum, but considering how cold/hot my half aluminum knob gets, I don't think I want an aluminum reverse lockout.

You mean this?

swift996 · 03-16-2013, 11:02 AM

I personally hate the lockout feature. I wish they would have done like any other car company and made it a push down or a push over far left. It's hideous and its hard to grip the knob without gripping the plastic for the lockout.

RazBRZ · 03-16-2013, 01:40 PM

Sounds like you need a bigger knob.

I like it but not when I can get steering rack bushings for a bit more

[QUOTE=Turbowned;797221]You mean this?

Yes, more info please! Brand? If I could fit my old Veilside metal knob on it, I'd be a happy man!

Just ordered my brz today, so I need to get started on the mods
