Yea when you shift, you just say "click" shift again, "click" and so forth. Now your on your way to movie stardom. Hey maybe you could pick up a role F&F 3.

Hey, I know just what youre talking about. I saw the movie the other day and I heard the click, but its more of a clank. It sounds nice as hell but I think thats just a hollywood sound effect. I instaled a short shifter and poly-bushings and the sound doesnt come. Maybe if you just put some loose washers on something...

You cant blame him for getting on someone who wants his shifter to make Hollywood sound effects.

that does sound tight. i haven't heard of anyone outside of that movie having it though. but how about that chirp vin diesels rx7 had when he shifts and he hadn't even pushed the gas down. it chirpped when he put the clutch in. now that's hollywood

I'm pretty sure for all those concerned if you just found out about something, asked a question, got smartass remarks you would enjoy that.:rolleyes:

Let me tell you something smartass! One, my feelings weren't hurt! Two, someone was asking a legit question who was trying to find out what was used to make that sound. Nothing pisses me more off than a newbie coming on here cracking jokes on people who have serious and legit questions. It doesn't help the cause that AF is here for. Now I wasn't saying that you couldn't joke, just answer his fuckin question and then maybe crack a joke. But don't come at me with your shit cuz personally I don't waste my time with idle chit chat, got it!


And we also enjoy getting nasty grams from the "Moderator"! I thought this was rather cute and almost infantile, so I thought I would share. Sounds to me like I pissed in his cheerios!

What you do is cut the carpet away from behind the clutch and depress the clutch harder than normal

There is your clicking sound it is not from the shifter its from the clutch
