Sequencial gear shifter for FD

What do you guys think about this shifter they will run about $1050 and will make shifting at the track much smoother. http://www.takakaira.com/performance...mula/main.html

Black99, is your sig a pic of your RX7 shifting?


I've always wanted a car to spit fire from the exhaust on gearchanges. I wonder if I can get my parents' Lexus to do that...

sequential shifter, group buy??

If we get enough people interested we may be able to get discounts per shifter, imagine if we can get 50-100 people to buy into the deal we might get 20% off including shipping cost too.

I'm game....

That thing should be called what it is, a vertical gate shifter.
It is Fugly, compared to the one that is out there already.
I nean, if the shift know was any higher, you would need a sunroof!

Look for this one:
It's the Stillway drag shifter, and it works as a regular H pattern shifter as well. It looks like it belongs in the space shuttle!
The price was about $700 last time I checked, from Japan.

You used to be able to get the stillway one from speedlab, but they no longer exist and have not seen it since...
