The only thing I don't like about the CAE shifter is that it bolts on to the transmission tunnel and not the top of the gearbox. What I found is that in hard cornering the gearbox and engine move around a bit from left to right (mine was not solid mounted for NVH), which means the gear-change position would change slightly and because the H pattern on the MT75 feels quite close together with this shifter, it lead to mis-shifts going from 4th to 5th (potentially allowing you to buzz the engine).
In the end, I made a platform to mount it on the top of the gearbox so that any movement in the transmission did not affect the shift position. Plus the adjuster on the shaft would keep coming undone, so once I was satisfied it was in the correct position I had a one-piece item made. With this all done, the change was super-fast and I was then confident to do clutchless up-changes with just the briefest throttle lift (Ludde dog-box). Was sufficiently fast-changing that it was able to see off 750bhp GTRs ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm sure the 420G is mounted more rigidly than the MT75, but if you do start to experience miss-shifting issues, then at least you know where to look to fix it ![]()
