Uuc evo3 short shifter.

[Vanne]

so this is where it will roughly go, need to sort alternate fixing for Hazzard lights switch.

Guess those pictures are in reverse. Esthetically it still needs to be fixed up a little, trimings and such in place. But practically I am just lost for words.. it might seem a bit hardcore, but just 1 minute driving and you would be sold. No more gear denials, no more wondering what gear that is and hoping it's not 2nd.. just really , really nice..

That looks awesome. If you could retrofit it somehow and look completely stock it'd be the ultimate drive train mod!

 

[Vanne]

Yeah still working on ideas for some OEM looking cover..

Lol, it's up for sale.. bought something .... Else

Let me know if you'd like it 275 us and I'll Chuck in postage over to the pond..

Thanks for this vanne, installed today, massive improvement, really chuffed
If anyone wants to keep the stock shift knob for their ssk I would highly recommend this uuc kit. Fitted perfectly and a quality product.

Liking it buddy !
What i personally would do is as did when doing my f10 and you have is take the surround off with it's buttons
Take out shifter after noting measurements of it's shift area

mark out shift measurements and give them and the old central piece after cutting out area in bottom pic to accommodate your shift measurements to leather guy and have a cool nice quality gaitor made to fit and be elasticaticated around base of shifter and retro fit buttons by lengthening the wires and push them under the open area down side of tunnel and then with wires hidden

Put them on a simple bracket that can be screwed into let's say under but visibly forward of area under and next to tunnel
As marked in pic



God I'm tired hahah

Thanks, but might have chosen to keep it open, I've grown attached to it a bit, and it really is a work of art when you see it in real life. I will however clean up around the sides a bit. That and pretty much 99 percent of my parts are still in my garage, just incase i have to ever return this car back to spec.

Beedub, Sorry mate, forgot to answer your question about this shifter, there is no modification required, aside from drilling 4 holes for the bolts. This one was custom made for my car so is a tad narrower than the other generic USSK. However dealing with the company that made it was a freaking nightmare due to mostly my lack of German, and their lack of understanding english. LOL

That would still keep it all open buddy
As id have the leather from the edge straight down to the base of shifter so all exposed

Just it hides edge of gap and covers floor area

Shame you didn't get a chance to try it dave, next time...
Fascinating 10 laps or so with a well driven GT3RS 997.1, there's nothing in it between them (on brand new cup2s vs my slightly shagged nankangs I might add :lol: ) £1100 for his set vs £430 for mine.
@Vanne, no pictures, I had my shop do it as they were dropping the exhaust and diff for new camber arms, leaking front diff seal sorted whilst there. Expensive but all worth it, car is feeling really great atm

Yes, perhaps the smoothest and fastest I've seen you drive mate The cars really were very close, with the GT3RS slightly quicker at Tower and Quarry, the grip of its tyres helping, then you would get him back by either chicane. Nice of them to come over and chat afterwards. If only you'd had a GoPro.....

This mod looks awesome for a track based car....

Just a quick question if I may - what engine mounts are you running with this shifter? I was under the impression for (effectively) a solidly mounted gear shifter, you need some chunky (if not solid) engine mounts to ensure that the shifter doesn't break....?
