White Racing short-shifter kit - any experience? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

conesare2seconds · 04-18-2017

Does anyone have any experience with this product? The trans will be out for a new pilot bearing and I'm debating this v. the Hurst shifter, which I already own but haven't installed. Feel free to PM me if you'd rather not post a public review. WR is a supporting vendor and I want to understandably keep it positive. If it's great, by all means, share.

I checked the stickies before posting, sorry if I overlooked any info there.

Do a search in the Tech section about the shifters. There are quite a few threads about the different shifters, which I am sure you will enjoy reading.
They will give you a lot of insight on choosing one for your Z.

Check over on CF also, here is an example....

I've tried them all and without question prefer the throw length, firmness, and positive feel of the Hurst.

I agree with Phil, for the shortest positive feeling shifter I like the B&M Ripper(however its super short and notchy),but for smooth transitioning short shifting I like the Hurst also. Its in the Irene car.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I did read all the shifter threads, then decided to send my Hurst for installation. It's been in the parts stash for 8 years, not sure what I thought I was saving it for, haha.
