I just emailed Rob. Hopefully he can shed some light on the subject...

just called too - and i was told 3 weeks? sounds like the run around - UUC isn't inspiring much confidence

I hope this run around stuff is not true..Im waiting at least 5 weeks.

UUC has always done right by me.....but sumthin is up w/ these DSSRs causing such ongoing delays.

maybe Rob will chime in.......

With reference to the AKG setup above, I have the same setup.

I think you will find yourself going insane from the gearbox noise with solid gearbox mounts.

I would run AKG's cupped E21 rubber trans mounts and their solid engine mounts. This way engine not going to move, hence gearbox neither BUT your gearbox doesnt transmit every single noise to the chassis.

I do this with the DTM shifter and it stays in place, doesn't pop out of gear and I don't have gearbox whine.

Trust me, solid gearbox mounts in anything but a full race car is ANNOYING AS HELL. Louder than any exhaust drone or intake or resonance. Regardless of RPM, you will have shitty, annoying gearbox NOISE with solid mounts

You didn't put anything between the shifter plate and trans tunnel did you? You can eliminate a lot of the noise if you put aluminum tape(foam/tar backed) in between. You can also cut the shift boot so that it's only a ring sandwiched between the plate and body. You could even go a step further and do the same to the trans crossmember and isolate it from the chassis with the same aluminum tape.

I just called today and the sales rep said its pushed back 3 months. Any other venders selling this item?

[Spitfi-r]

Mines been back ordered since memorial day. I don't need it yet so I haven't bothered to call for an update.
Maybe they are waiting for more orders before they make a batch.

Hey guys,

Missed this thread when it first came up.

Our special twisted DSSR for 24v swaps is in stock for immediate shipping: [ CLICK HERE ]

Just tried to order one last week... Backordered. Any idea when you will be shipping again?

[johnjohnsons54]

So what DSSR is used for an s50 swap using the ZF?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but it would be the one on their site specified for a 95 M3.

I have an S52/ZF 320 and ordered the EVO 3 and DSSR for a 97 M3.....just waiting for it to be shipped

[chris_rai]

So it makes the original e30 shift linkage bolton with the m50 twisted getrag 260 ?

Rob, I accidentally ordered the with the "UUC EVO 3 after 4/04" setting instead of the OEM shifter setting... Will it still work, or should I cancel my order / order another one?

No, that's totally fine - those are the same.

But what you should do is order the Evo3! :mrgreen:

It works with the selector joint I received from UUC when I purchased a DSSR "back in the day" when I had an M20. I believe UUC referred to it as an M3 knuckle but TBH it looked like the same one I had already on my 89 325is. I changed it out because it was new.

As I say to others who ask me about the BSSR, it has been specifically made to suit my RHD 89 325is which has an G260 box, a euro S50 and the AKG DTM shifter. The rod is rotated around 10 degrees and the length of it is tuned so the AKG shifter sticks straight up in the middle of the trans tunnel cutout, just like other shifters but I haven't personally tested it on other shifters. I can't imagine its too off, because like I say, the rod lines up in the middle of the trans tunnel whole.
The simple solution for 100% fitment, as designed, is to also purchase the AKG shifter :)

I wanted a shift rod specific to my needs and luckily we run a high end engineering shop. We figured to make 5 because well for the time it took to pull down a production 5 axis mill to setup this little job... I might as well make a few more than I need given setup and pull down time was about 4 hours and the time to make them was only about 15min each. Based upon std hours these BSSR's should cost about $400 each!

Such is the pain of low volume parts! Anyway off topic...

P.S. They're made from EN36 which is a case hardened tool steel. Pretty burly little units.


I see your PM
