Anyone else shifting up and down irrationally? lol. Now y’all gotta do the pdk tune for improved responsiveness.

Thoughts: the sound is very cool. As has been said it doesn’t increase responsiveness. The new shifter mechanisms look more robust and better put together than stock. I don’t like the carbon paddles or the feel of them. Excited to have the GT3RS paddles for this though. All in all it was worth the price and would buy again:
Do the CF paddles bend at all?

No they have no discernable flex whatsoever. I didn't want any CF in my interior but these CF paddles have an amazing feel

Overall very Impressive units, The paddles fell a wee bit short of expectations, but i have rather high standards for paddles given my Day job. No flex (within reason) but look forward to the upgrade paddles.

Also pretty cool to see that Porsche uses the same Molex 1.25mm 4p we use on our Replica Steering wheels.



Grid Paddle Vs JQ paddle

Once he gives me final information, I'll be reaching out again.

I have the pdk tune and my God I can’t stop clicking either. I used to drive in auto mode 90% of the time. Now I drive in full manual 100% no matter how short the drive is. The clicking mechanics is so damn addictive and satisfying to my ocd self, it’s insane.

If JQ made a fidget clicker, y’all sound like you’d buy it.

Looks like your paddles would bolt right up to the JQ mechanism

JQ paddles have a Single M5 Slot, We are on Dual M4 Slot, If I'm not 100% happy with the GT3R billet units when they are done, i might design something custom or get a thicker set based on JQ style. Overall tho these are well worth the asking price.
