Niko0o Posted 3August, 2023 Author Report Share Posted 3August, 2023 Got around to taking the car around the block. Shifting feels way better compared to the stock shifter. No more slack anymore and more precise engagement into each gear, auto centring springs also helps too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 3August, 2023 Report Share Posted 3August, 2023 Is that a We've shifter? Looks great, and you'll never go back to an original one now. Sloppy boxes...hate em 🤔😉 micknine01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko0o Posted 20August, 2023 Author Report Share Posted 20August, 2023 First outing of the car with the new shifter. Car definitely feels more fun to drive. Previously (with the stock shifter) first gear would slightly grind when engaging (was told my numerous people, syncros in the gearbox). Since installing the new shifter (and adjusting it to the correct location). No more grinding at all… I’m assuming, at some stage, it could have moved position (maybe the rear linkage) resulting in a slight grind when selecting 1st gear. Anyway, would definitely recommend if anyone is planning on changing shifters and rear shift linkage to improve the “slop” and engagement of each gear Yeatesy, Stepo and tomo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko0o Posted 23August, 2023 Author Report Share Posted 23August, 2023 Finally got the other parts delivered, yellow glass fog lights and headlights. Not sure if I’ll keep this look or not (maybe just keep the foggies yellow), but easy replacement to go back to stock Harsh, LeeM and P-Kay 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 23August, 2023 Report Share Posted 23August, 2023 Looks great I reckon mate...though I have removable yellow vinyl on mine, so I'm a bit biased there 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As yellow lenese are illegal, they didn't really wanna do it, so I said if they could fit a bit of the vinyl just tobthe face of the lens so I could rip it off if ol plod wanted to defect me. The reflector on the headlight makes it look like the whole lens is wrapped Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reflector on the headlight makes it look like the whole lens is wrapped That was another idea I was going to do. I’ll see how they look out in the flesh, worst case, I’ll go back to the stock ones and leave the yellow lenses on the fog lights. The car is lucky to get driven 500kms a year so hopefully it shouldn’t be an issue haha, but definitely good idea with the vinyl tomo and LeeM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko0o Posted 25August, 2023 Author Report Share Posted 25August, 2023 Another delivery. Finally got around to changing the door seals on the body of the 911. Water used to get in every time I would wash the car, hopefully this shouldn’t happen anymore. Easy install and not an expensive item tomo, P-Kay and Harsh 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko0o Posted 28September, 2023 Author Report Share Posted 28September, 2023 Thinking of changing up the appearance of the car. Possibly go a Carerra wing (currently have the turbo wing) or no wing at all. Remove the side stone guard (go clear) or possibly some 17” wheels (have a few JDM wheels lying around…), or BBS E50’s (a little hard to find these in 17”) what are your thoughts… tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
