On another note, did you install your STS yourself? If so, how difficult of an install was it? How long did it take you? Did you have to drop the tranny any? I'm trying to figure out whether this is a DIY project or whether I'll have to pay a shop to do it. |

The only problem you may run into is removal of the stock factory shifter handle, video says pull it up and off, but the ZL1 has a set screw on the side, I think some other Models may have the set screw too, so just be aware of this.

Since I was replacing the whole assembly, however, I took it to a local performance shop for the install. I paid for 2 hours of labor @ $90/hr. I love the new shifter: Last edited by Klepton; 03-10-2014 at 01:40 AM. |

How can you tell if the previous owner installed it or not?
What's the stock height of the shifter? |

I did this on my RX8.
One of the RX8 forum members was an engineer and had a machine shop and basically found out a way to create a shorter throw shifter. It doesn't look like it's that easy here. Looks like a complicated R&R. Last edited by Genzl1rev; 06-08-2016 at 02:38 PM. |

SHIFTER HANDLE
Just had my Hurst Billet Plus 2 short throw installed with extreme Pit Pack bushing.
I used the Classic White Knob that came with the kit. I should have installed this a long time ago. Love the feel and precision of this shifter. I ordered the pistol grip off of Amazon, but it is on backorder for 6-8 weeks. Hurst does not have this on their site either. I found Core Shifters online that have 3 variations. Sweet!!!! Brushed Silver (5388665) Black Derlin (5388656) Really different!!!!! Titanium Gray (5388655) http://core-shifters.com/products/hu...ant=9091766083 SamHouseIII great install and thanks for the write up and push.

My Z shifts pretty good now.
Without taking the bottom trans boot off, how can I tell if the original owner didn't install it?

Hurst?

Just lift off the trim that covers the shifter and gauges. It comes off easy. Take off the 4-bolts that hold the boot in place. The hurst will have 2 bolts holding the handle. Check out this video.

PITT PAK BUSHING
If your wondering about the bushing upgrade, then I think you would have to remove the tranny boot.
