Another shifter stiffening mod. (Sector111 + Stan mod + this...) - LotusTalk

newman · 01-11-2009, 09:33 PM

I had the center console and seats out of my S240 today, and i noticed a tab on the bottom of the shift cage that was just hovering above the floor and not really doing much of anything... So i basically followed the same procedure as installing the Sector111 brace (drilling through the brace and floor), but about 3/4 of the way towards the rear of the cage, then coupling it with some shims (like the stan mod).

It's definitely a noticeable difference. I'm happy i did it, and aside from removing the seats, installing it only takes about 5 minutes.

Here's a video of before and after... (please disregard the fact that i spelled "noticeable" incorrectly)

Great work!
You ought to call this the e-brake bolstering mod because it
doesn't seem to effect shifter stiffness.

You're probably right, however it just seemed fitting to call it the "shifter mod" to keep it in the theme.
