GROUP BUY TRD SHORT SHIFTER

[iNdCeNt]

Guys there are only are certian number of these kits that TRD pump out each month so we are limitted by this. The 1st shipment is what they currently have in stock and the remainder are those that are yet to be produced. This is how I understand it anyway. You will get your part in due course, but for this it's a case of 1st in best dressed I'm afraid. It's not our fault ar the suppliers, but purely the small numbers that TRD make of this particular unit. My understanding is that they are actually producing more then the norm of this unit just to fill our order (normal being ~5-10 units a month)

Dylan pretty much has sum it all up .

now i havent said anything cause i have been waiting for a deifnate date:

the 4 kits arrived as stated ealrier 13/09/06.

Blue stivo

TRD Japan decided to hold the rest of the 13 kits back to send them all in one go.

how are the gear changes? do you find you hit lift from 1 to 2?

i can't wait for mine :)

[MR22ZZ]

I was hitting lift on 1-2 changes previously anyway.

I've not tested it properly as yet, but I'll be hitting the track soon, so I'll let you know the results from that...

cheers that would be great. only 6 weeks to go hehe oh btw post a review on the short shifter also if you could.

[DANZZT231]

The harder you shift, the better it gets with TRD quickshifter kit. It prefers abusive shift rather than lazy shifting.

[MR22ZZ]

yeah I've noticed that Dan, I've alson noticed that the gears fell like they 'lock in' better too.

[Kevsta]

Man I struggle landing in lift from 1-2, and the only way I can do it is to keep a little gas on.

I hope this shifter cures my problem.

[DANZZT231]

Although you will shift quicker, it probably won't help you land on lift in 2nd gear. However, there's a greater sense of confident that you shift onto the right gear - more accurate with solid feel.

yO mario thats great to hear buddy :)

[traumatized]

sorry i know this is alittle bit off topic but for those who have installed the SS is it noisy? i remember reading somewhere about cutting rubber to stop the noise and wondered if i would need to do this also..

cheers.

[MR22ZZ]

never had to cut anything and it's not noisy at all.

[DANZZT231]

all you'll hear is "Clunk!" when you shifted, which to me sounds great knowing you are in gear. Just don't mis-shift.

[hebe]

If there are any kits left over please PM me :)

[traumatized]

thanks blue stivo and danz.. the thread i was refering to is the following.. did you notice any difference in noise from stock both on the stivo and the 1zz??

I believe MSROLA got in 1st but I don't believe there are any spares...

Jason (Rollamods) has some nice modified shifters that do the job nicely too I've heard ;)
