manual trans shifters??
so as you see in many racing vehicles is the simple front back shifting ***. Where might i be able to find that product or does it depend on the transmission

what car we talking about..
please start getting used to posting your car series and any modifications if applicable to a question.
..
Now if we are talking sequential shifter..then it is expensive..that saying comes into play"If you have to ask then yo many not be able to afford it!"

What you want is called a "sequential" manual transmission, which typically costs around $5,000 to $35,000, not including labor. You could also get an aftermarket electro-hydraulic unit for the OEM manual transmission, but it isn't going to be cheap, and I'm not sure if there is much point in trying to upgrade the OEM transmission when there are better racing units available.

even if you can afford the sequential shift trans, you have to learn the proper shifting technique. heel and toe aswell as double clutching on the downshifting. double clutching on the downshift is mainly for preserving transmission life, and you have to blip the throttle to match engine and trans speeds. it takes awhile to learn properly. i would suggest going to a driving school to learn how to treat a sequential trans without detonating the thing.

you could but it would be detrimental to the syncros and gears eventually. typical rule of thumb is leave off on the clutch, rack it on the upshifts, and clutch on the downshifts. i have a good video that explains all of this somewhere.
