Will this shifter be made for both S4 and S5 threads?

 

Damn talk about a loss of momentum.

 

You can add me to the list of likely customers.

Id like a short throw and the shifter has way too much play, worn bushings I guess.

But I very much want to keep my stock AE shift ****.

 

I'm definetely very interested in this also as I have been wanting to get a short shifter since I got my car but couldn't justify spending ~$250 for a mazdatrix ones.

 

ditto

 

Just so people stop PM'ing me, I'll reply in the thread.

We were hoping to get the shifters out a month ago, but discovered that in some cars they would rattle like hell. 99% of cars were perfect, butthat 1% that have worn shift linkages will rattle louder then the engine. We are currently working on a solution, but it may take some time. I am NOT willing to release a product unless it is perfect

 

Dont they all do that though?

The Mazdatrix short shifter page mentions it I believe.

Yep, here: http://www.mazdatrix.com/shiftrat.htm

 

really looking forward to the perfection of this short shifter Aaron!

 

Yea bro take all the time you need to make it perfect, I'd hate to be that 1% to get all that rattle. Can I put a down payment on this thing? hehehe....

 

i as this thread start am still waiting! and if the shifter linkage is wobbly i am going to replace it it seems to be INSIDE the tranny thats all wobbly because i replaced the bushing and its terrible its in that top part of the tranny plus my tranny is garbly..ima just get taht OS giken twin from my friend and replace the tranny and get the aluminum driveshaft.....and hopefully aarons shifter....lol when its done....

 

son of a *****, i'm getting ready to ditch my rattletastic mazdatrix shifter if this thing lives up to the hype.

 

Mine will not.

 

Is this rattle fix going to add to the price of the shifter? I hope you get the problem worked out soon. By the way, you never did say what thread patterns they will be offerered in.

The typical rate of shifter rattle is 1 out of 3, so I'd say 1% for yours is a job well done.

 

The price may be slightly higher, but not by a lot by any means...

As for the threads, it will be threaded for the stock ****.

 

com'on aaron cake... let do a v1 release now
if it rattle i may be able to help you to fix it too.
you can always release the prefect verson (v2) later on.
ahhaha this wait thing remind me of the GT4 ps2
:-(

 

I am not Microsoft. I do not release flawed products and then make the consumer suffer and pay for the upgrade.

 

What is it going to be called? What is the estimated release date?

 

OMFG thats soo true and awwsome! i cant WAIT FOR IT!!!!!

 

We're not sure on the release date. Basically, it will be done when it's done. Very close though.

 

OOOOoooOOO i cant belive this i cannot wait! hell i started this thread and i was going to get that RE-shifter! and because of this im waiting and still waiting im super excited...because my budddy has a B&M on his 240 its SOLID AND STIFF AS HELL! i love it..... gosh man....im glad i am wiating...although this sloppy *** shifter is still killin me!

It will come with everything. No bushings are required.
