Hey everyone!

 

Just letting you know about a great place to get 20V adapter and also Short shifters for the T50 box.

 

Short shifter

 

 

 

 

Thinking maybe we should try to get a group buy happening, save on some freight.

USD, they've quoted me $50 us for the postage of a 20V adapter, so I dare say it wouldn't be too dear.

quote: Our T3 Short Throw Shifter features a 55% reduction in throw. Yes! That is 55% reduction vs. TRD's 33% Reduction in throw.

 

we have a TRD T50 short shifter and it's more than 33%, closer to 50%.

 

looks almost the same as the TRD item, does make a difference but make sure your gearboxes are in good nick, as it is hard on the syncro's.

Chris, what's the price on yours? And are there some to suit K50s?

Ah cool, looks nice eh. TRD kE70, Gotta get your wreckers to source me an LSD from a mazda van to fit a B1800 housing salsbary type, 10 bolt I think. 23 spline axels I believe.

beerhead: ok i'll just write that down and sort it tomorrow.

 

tiger: Trd quick shifts are worth about $170 us and the T50 ones fits K gearboxes.

 

our quick shift cost nothing, it came in from japan on a gearbox and no one knew what it was. :P

 

here's the one out of the rally car, this one i brought back from japan, Tony got it on yahoo auctions and got it sent to me at Suzukisport.

 

the other one we had was like the one posted. had the spacer and was really good quality.

Cheers

I want one!!

i'd want one if they were chaeper!

I've got a T3 one, and it's really quite good :P My only "complaint" is that it's very very "notchy". There is absolutely no slop in the gear change action though, it's all very positive. Oh, and another problem is because the distances are reduced so much, plus the fact that the spring action is quite strong and the shift action so notchy, sometimes it's hard to know what gear you're in, or going to. I've shifted from 1st to 4th on quite a few occasions...

I think I'll stick to the regular shifter. Sounds much safer, plus I don't think it's got a very long throw anyway.

I had my stock T50 shifter shortened cos i thought it was too long by 1 one. My neighbour who has a metal lathe cut it and re-tapped the thread for me.

 

Felt stacks better cos it was so damn long :P

wouldn't mind some of the t3 gear. mainly the suspension stuff!!

It's not too hard to make the short shifter if you are handy with a welder. I made one for my last T50box. You can then decide how much reduction in throw you want rather than what you can uy.
