It scared the shit out of me riding in it.

Hahaha yea that thing was insane. We did quite a few beat-the-snowplows and snowy parking lot shenanigans before it turned into a fully caged rallycar. The noises that thing made....

Ah, Val's V8A4. That thing was a riot to drive!

man has my car changed since then, wow. Thanks for the pics!

Back in 2009

Was that November/decemberish?

I think I vaguely remember that meet, I would have just gotten back from Germany and bought the red m3.

I'm old...and holy crap 2009 was 7 years ago.

thats a sexy rod. Is it cheaper than the AKG?

Yeah it's $190 new, I bought mine for $150 used (never mounted). I'd rather have the akg one... but $200 is $200...

I've been lucky to score 2 AKG shifters (gave the 1st to my brother when I stumbled upon the 2nd) for half of what they are new, but if I were to ever do it again, I would probably go with this setup considering cost.

It's effectively the same functioning design (can't really do it any other way if someone wants to claim copy) with the chassis mount being different.

Have you got any pictures of the install of the solid shifter? does it sandwhich mount on the trans tunnel?
Considering purchasing one but im not sure if the height of the shifter

Yeah it sandwich mounts and self-centers in the tunnel cutout. No drilling required. Although I drilled a small notch to accommodate the reverse light wire which I'm going to hit with some sealant.

I love the height of the shifter so far. I haven't noticed it to be fatiguing at all. Plus the shorter throw reduces the shifting effort by so much.

The PMC shifter is insanely fun. My brother's sedan came with one. Car's looking good.
