Any reason why it wouldint go into 2nd gear after install??? 2nd gear is locked for me

Good stuff. I used this as a guide to remove my Turbo r-spec assembly. Thanks.

I thought this would be like dropping a short throw in a na Miata holy shit lol

Where do I get that black piece that connects to boot retainer

I just finished an install for a customer. I only took off the front transmission support crossmember and didn't touch the heat shield or the second cross Member attached to the shield. It was unnecessary in my experience. The 3x 12mm bolts are easy to reach w/a extension and wobble adapter. For the pin I didn't have a punch w/ me so I fashioned a punch out of a screw and grinded it flat and removed the threads, using a auto E-hammer made the job easier, a standard hammer was taking forever and was way too crammed of an area to work even on a mobile lift. As far as removing that clip in the shift linkage I'd also advise against it as it barely helps make any clearance, instead take off the 2x 12mm bolts holding the shift linkage on and pull the whole bracket w/ clip out of the way. Easier to take off and no PITA clip to put on and put back on in that tight space. Putting the new pin in with my auto hammer was super easy, took 30s, the hammer was just to get it started... From there I wouldn't waste my time after hitting my fingers with the hammer 3x due to aluminium transmission mounting areas getting in the way and deflecting my strike. A sharpie is your friend when lining up the cotter pin to the hole.

What is the brass looking bushing you put on for? Is it necessary for the install? Or is it to slightly firm up the shift feel?

EVERYONE. When installing this, make sure the shifter barely rests on the compression pin on your shifter. If seated fully down, it’ll constantly compress it in a way that causes the car’s electrical system to lose its mind lol. Unfortunate side effect but can be mitigated! If needed, I can make a video explaining it.

I find the functionality very awkward. I don’t suppose you can make the functionality where you pull up instead?

I feel like I’m going to rip the boot or detach it from the chrome piece if I pull down too hard

I did mine yesterday does anyone know why it won’t click anymore ? It takes afew tries and it clicks again out of nowhere And the button is super hard to push in I have to slam my palm into it to get it in

My button goes , but only functions when it’s screwed half way, if it’s tight it doesn’t push in, only when it’s loose

Does this work with the oem shift knob or ford performance carbon fiber shift know ??? I have a 2020 mustang gt

that does not work for the 2016

I can’t seem to get mine tight enough that it won’t twist. Can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong

Literally been looking everywhere for a video of this thing. But y’all seriously made an 8 minute clip with zero exhaust sound. Ngl I’m kinda pissed.

Does this lower the height of the shift knob, leave it the same, or raise it? It almost looks like it raises the overall height of the knob in the video, but I can' quite tell. Definitely doesn't look like it lowers it!

This video is absolute BS I wish it was that easy to take off. I have a new 2024 Elantra N and the stock shift knob will not come off no matter how hard I try and I’m a big guy. I’ve had multiple other people try and they can’t take it off either. The 2024’s are a new trim and it feels like it’s impossible to take off. Just a heads up to current ‘24 owners.

I like that it maintains the OE look and still works well.

Will this work on a 2017 GT350?

What generation rb26 was used in this swap? From bnr32 33 or 34?

thank god for your comment. my car has some milage and it definitely wont come off. i will go get that pry bar and PB blaster ASAP. Watching you wiggle it off helped a lot!

Just bought a 24 gt 10 speed auto really want this is there any issues where remote start will not work or door chime after doing the install ?

You will need a 5/64 Allen key btw !

For anyone curious about other shapes fitting, they claim in the size guide that the extended adapter will be included so you don’t really have to worry about it.

Are these 100% US manufactured?

Good to know. I have the 6speed manual. Just as easy?

Zip tie ?? lol need find better way

Love the BW shift plate and short shifter, but you gotta add in the part where you lube the shift cable before trying to put it on the bushing. It's a PITA without lube, and then actually using the shifter is terrible. I went back and added lube to the bushing and now its butter smooth.

Do you have a video for the automatic fitments?

is there any way to stiffen the centering spring? going from 2nd to 3rd i feel like the spring is kinda weak and i sometimes hit the divider between 1st and 3rd. never had that experience in my other cars until i got the GR.

Are you able to replace the shift boot to?

The amount of work needed to change the knob on a VAG lol

Can we see some driving videos to see how the shifter performed?

This install looks a lot easier than it was on the GR86. lol I may have to pick this up.

Does anyone know the size of the flange nut?

Your brass bushing looks the exact same as mine but I'm finding it impossible to get it fully into the linkage! Any advice? I tried somewhere lithium grease but still no luck

That's the most complicated shifter install I've ever seen. Love the video. Very in depth...but makes me shy away from an aftermarket shifter haha

Do y’all have one for the cvt Corolla hatchback

Ever heard of a trim tool remover.

definitely one of those "while you are in there " installations....because while you are in there, you might as well add a new transmission mount and positive shift kit (Whiteline or similar) with all of the braces and brackets you are taking off; if you haven't done those mods already. Plus, if the car is on a lift, it makes it soooo much easier...

Thanks for the video! Are there going to be more pictures with different shift knob shapes uploaded to the Billetworkz website?

Thanks for the video to walk us through the installation. i like how at 5:26 you just pull out a dremel to take off that little bugger and skip the video of it. That is all it took for me to decide to not install this thing. I am already nervous about having to use a dremel to do it. With the video skipping it that makes me wonder why. Too bad bc I would love to accomplish lightning-fast shifts.

Are you supposed to lube the outside of the white piece on the bottom of the shifter before reconnecting it to the shifter linkage? Not sure how much it moves around when shifting, but I installed mine last weekend and am now wondering if I missed that.

Any chance yall would do this for the BRZ, I am not sure if this would even work, as its a different console, Id love if there was a way to change out the plastic in my BRZ's HVAC controls to have metal and more premium feel, for the switches and the knobs, I am sure if it can be done a lot of other people would love this as well.

why dont you need to reinstall the last cover with the tricky 4th bolt?

Does this increase the shifting effort by a noticeable amount in a gr corolla?

is it a special size allen key for the bottom lock out? legit every single size in both my metric and standard sets do not fit.

If you want to use any shift knob on the market get yourself a likewise xlr don’t waste your money on thes scam artist charging through the nose for parts that can only be used with there products ok yeah you have the extension but no one in there right mind is paying 100$ for that people do your research before ordering anything from these guys unless they lower there crazy prices!!

Great video! Is your shift plate compatible with the STI short shifter?

Steel wide body?
