FS: JNZ Short Shifters Available!

[DSSA]

Thanks to a board member, we have a limited supply of parts to make shifters.

We have enough parts to build 4 (possibly 5)shifters.

As always, I prefer giving members here first shot at them before posting them on the regular DSM forums.

Pricing will revert back to the old "complete" shifter pricing of $145 for the shifter. If you want the upper stalk shortened as well, it will be $35 extra.

I'm going to put these up here until Tuesday, 01/14/14 and if there are any left, then I'll advertise them on the DSM forums.

If you want one, or have questions, please call the shop (215)997-6850 or email us directly @ [email protected] as I'm only on the board every couple of days.

Thanks!

Josh

You guys are awesome.

I want one but I have a question for anyone that has one of these. What is better suited the shortened shifter or the stock height shifter? Anyone with experience or has one please chime in, I am ready to purchase one of these asap!

 

[turbowop]

I have the shorty version. I absolutely love it.

 

[conradical]

I have a shifter from a 94 3000GT and wasn't sure if I should get it short or just leave it at the stock height. Are there any pics out there of the difference and what would the price be if I sent you the shifter?

 

[MX4]

I have a standard height one and it works good for me.

I couldn't stand the OEM DSM shifter, so when I went with the JNZ shifter, I opted for the taller one. I've always liked a taller shifter with a short throw.

 

[DSSA]

The aspect of the shorter upper throw is pretty much a personal preference thing.

Your hand is obviously going to be resting about 1" lower than your current shifter, and the throw reduction is going to be similar (the real reduction is BELOW the shifter, but shortening above the pivot will reduce throw a bit as well.)


I'm giving fair warning here: We're already down to two of these left in less than 24 hours. If you want one, or are on the fence and have questions, please call the shop @ 215-997-6850 as I'm doubting these remaining will last the day. Paul will be more than happy to answer any questions you have.

Thanks again!

Glad to see these are being put to good use. I'll grab more if I see any pop up Josh.

I agree. I recently pulled the dsm shifter out and pull a JNZ short throw with stock length in. Personal preference but I love the way it sits and feels now!

 

[DSSA]

And then there was one...

I'll be compiling the list of who wants what at the end of the day and cranking these out to spec.

I'll update the thread once this last one is gone.

Thanks, as always guys!

ill take the last one. make it a shorty please

I love my stock height one. Doesn't feel like I have to reach at all for any gear. Very nice height/position.

 

[coyotes]

They're all gone now anyway, but I am curious, what are the benefits of these over a standard 1g shifter assembly? That is what I have in my VR4 right now, and it seems pretty short.. but I have felt it compounds the notchy nature of our transmissions.

 

[turbowop]

The 1g shifter doesn't shorten the actual throw of the shifts, just places the top of the shifter lower. These shorten the actual throw, below the boot. It's a big difference. If you ever get a chance to meet up, I'll let you play with my shifter. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

I rode in Mark's galant while in Yakima but I didn't play with his shifter. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif

FWIW here is info from when I made the same shifter for my car. I shortened the upper lever arm and it is night and day for feel, especially with my weighted 2g knob.

Actually, back then I still had the 1g DSM shifter.
