How does the shifter console compare to the 997.1 Gt3 console? I upgraded to the 997.424.010.91 gt3 shifter console and will be ordering the numeric cables. Car is a 997.1 S

The Console doesn't make any difference. The shifter is the exact same in both models!
Installed both the Numeric short shifter and cables on my 987 this past summer. Highly, highly recommend the upgrade to all as the shifter + cable combo replaces basically all the plastic between your hand and transmission with metal components and bearings.
Install required a medium level of skill but gave me the opportunity to add some sound deadening behind the seats and on the firewall while the carpets were out.
The end result is totally worth it - people are always surprised/impressed when I let them try it at car shows.
Shifter and cables installed Adding dynamat to removable firewall Dynamat behind the seats
Anyone have a picture of the final install? Any cutting or modifications to the console?
Thanks!
Final install looks 100% stock - no cutting required at all as this bolts in as a direct replacement. (pic below from a recent visit to palm springs)
When you route the cables there is a small rubber grommet behind the ebrake that you reuse & that needs to be cut to fit on the new cables (5 min job). The rest is purely bolt on. Cables and shifter combo can be done in a day. I took the weekend as I went really slow taking off the console and organizing the parts as I took them off.
The hardest part of the install is connecting the cables to the transmission & tightening them down - do yourself a favor and get the cable wrench from Numeric ($20 i think) for better access to tighten them down.
also interested in this: for a 997.1 GT3 can the car be returned to completely OEM?
Yeah - can go back to OEM at any time - this unit is a direct replacement for the plastic shifter box. @Numeric Racing should be able to 100% confirm this as well.
If anyone is on the west side of LA and wants to check it out in my car - please DM me. I'll also be at Pelican C&C on the 25th for those attending.
