Manual Gearbox Shifter

[WilliamSmith]

Car is R33 turbo

After stuffing around with my auto box for long enough ive had a mechanic do a manual conversion for me. The last hiccup we've come across is that when I bought my gearbox it didn't come with a shifter.

Now thinking this was an easy fix I bought 1 of the cheapo copy short shifters from 999 Automotive but my mech is telling me now that it doesnt fit and that I need some plastic cup thingy from a stock shifter to make it fit.

He's other advice was to try a C's short shifter or get a stock shifter(no1 ive come across is willing to seperate this from their gearbox that they are selling)

Will a C's short shifter fit properly? Or do I need this plastic cup thingy?. Where abouts do I start hunting for either of these items or a stock shifter with all the mechanisms.

You can buy that nylon washer bit from nissan still. It's like $10 i think. Just be aware there is a big and small one, you need the big one.

no no I have that, apparantly theres something else im missing (from the stock shifter) to make it all fit

Is he talking about a plastic ring with 2 steel lugs on each side that slot into the shift control housing?

If so, the part number from Nissan is 32870-V5003.
