EVO shift linkage- yay or nay?
Found some negative reviews in other areas of Rennlist, issues with binding?
What's the general consensus here?
I want to do either the EVO linkage, or a new OE part when I have my 997 GT3 shifter installed (so I'm not stranded on the side of the road with a broken linkage)

Wow, old thread bump.
The 997.2 GT3 shifter console I bought has the updated 997 part, which is more substantial.
So, I ended up not installing the EVO link (I also didn't like the way you have to screw the shifter onto the shifter cable threads).

Yeah I did a search and came across this. Both times the connector broke I was stuck in a gear (2nd and then 3rd) I could at least get to a safe place, but frustrating.
I agree with the threading approach. From what I read that can be a source of problems too. Someone mentioned notchy shifts also after install (not sure why) so I am a bit amprehensive - being being stuck in a gear with my 4 year old isn't something I want to do a third time (and I don't think her turning 5 is the right solution )

Mine just broke on the last track day and the car had to be towed back.... I ended up getting the 997 GT3 shifter console+evoms shifter linkage. At the end of the day, aluminum is going to out last plastic.... I don't want to deal with it again.... The overall feel of shifter is definitely better then stock. I can't pinpoint which is responsible but overall I think it is a good upgrade
