M35 Works Bell Paddle Shift

[Sunkist]

A how-to would be awesome.

I'm in the process of getting my tiptronic going, and either a Works Bell shifter, or get some CNC'd up and make my own.

if your getting some CNC'd i might be interested. not interested in the carbon look.

but anodised .. hmmm

Will talk to the GF's brother, he's an engineer.

And then i'll see what my magical auto sparky can do, he's a wonder with electronics, especially auto shifters.

Maybe find a way around the delay when triggering a "manual" shift?

i just meant if he's having a look, and he's clever; he might find a fix for the delay when you shift manually, a la Scotty and your's ECU wire snip...

wanna know a quick way to shift(which you may already know)

when in Manual. and you change gear, as soon as your push the stick to change, pull your foot off the accelerator and stomp on it again..

also the shift kit install is helping us shift quicker.

ill get in the car tomorrow morning and tell you which wire it is and what size resistor.. u really wont need a switch, i dont think ive ever touched mine..

Yeah, knew the "Rolling the throttle" one, and I'm trying to justify a shift kit to the "Minister for War & Finance" at the moment...

do what i do.. pretend somethings wrong with it and then say it needs to be "fixed" lol

the guy who did mine n jethros said if you send the valve body to me he'll do it for under $500

I remember you said who it was, but do you want to give me a number, or a link to contact him?

jist let him know he did a black m35 n i said he'd give you a good price

I'm very keen to do this mod as well......

If somebody (Scott or Aaron) could do a post which summarized "why" and "how to" that would be brilliant.

Would also help those searching in the future!

Thanks guys!

[Sunkist]

the wire?

il have one up this evening.. just a quick one ill probably post here.. takes a few minutes

[spoolin12]

Post it up Aaron! I'm keen to hook it up as tomorrow I will put a switch in for the throttle restriction.

Should finally get my EManage installed next week.

[Sunkist]

ok so i slacked off.. ill do it today lol.. ill take some pics as well

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!......

Oh and a little birdy told me yesterday the the error when you get it limits boost to .7PSI for those of you running the standard boost system.

[Sunkist]

yep screwing off the boost solenoid and putting in a controller should avoid this.. but you'll get the engine light

5 minutes and ill have a write up

[scotty nm35]

Just disconnecting the boost side hose into the solenoid should fix it, as long as thats the one with the restrictor which has to remain in place.

Any thoughts on whether or not the V36/G35 Sports paddle shifters would work in our M35's?

If they would work, who's keen for a group buy?

[Aegats]

Looks pimp

[joshm35]

Id be keen price depending
