I have nothing against the look of the original handle, but I feel it is clumsy to handle for quick shifting. I don't know how you guys break it, though. Maybbe I just don't have enough muscles... ;-)

We need pictures of Mike's idea!

 

While on the topic of the auto tranny, are their any upgrades for the 3spd auto, such as to make it shift harder, quicker, etc...?
Thanks

I have heard of someone who purchased a used 4-speed automatic and upgraded his car. Not sure, if that is an easy job, though...

 

On the later cars it's vaccum controlled. Check out the technical stuff on : http://members.rennlist.com/v1uhoh/

A Rennlisters site if I recall correctly.

I recently installed this Jager shifter and love it....

NYD, how much did you pay for the whole assy?

 

Watercooler:

They were Christmas presents from last year that I returned to Jager and got the newly released Linen/Burlwood shifter. I think it was about $220 for it all going by my faded memory.

Hoping to get the rest of the burlwood interior this Christmas!

 

Much better than original.
