Driftit 1950 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 Hey just picked up a new box for my race car. But when I put the old and new beside each other I noticed that the new one is not quite the same. This is the old one. And this is the new one. As you will notice the new one does not have the mount for the gear linkage. What linkage does it use? And can I still use my Z3 shifter with whatever linkage it is? Cheers Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 (edited) The new one is early preface, should have come with a pressed metal plate which mounts on the back of that box to take the shift lever. You can still use the short shift I believe.The one I have out here has the cast fitting like your first one.

e30ftw 396 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 You can fit z3 shifter in them, I had a steel plate shifter type as used on the above gearbox and was using a z3 shifter in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
