Contact for motorsport shifters

Hey i am after a VW motorsport replica shifter for my MK2. G-werks tell me they no longer import them and have had no luck with the people they used to use. C.A.E

Anyone know of anyone in the UK that has them or imports them so as to make my life easier

I want to get the seat tubes in before i finish up the cage and need to know where stuff mounts before it goes away for paint.

Thanks

 

i know someone who is making some

 

They're from Ringspan for you along with the RCS cables to go with them.

 

can you get different length cables bill ? mky mk4 jobbies area bit too long in the mk1

 

I’m interested as well Bill, plan A and plan B for the Corrado isn’t working as well as I’d hoped, a motorsport shifter may be the answer

think you have my mail address (daz@vr6corrado.co.uk)

 

Any chance you can mail me some pictures Bill, obviously I’ll still need to alter it

 

AMTR are the offical distributor for the motorsport shifters and cables along side vw racing.
Call Dave or Dan on 01453 822855

 

Just searched for ATMR and found a company in OZ that make industrial gearboxs, bit big for me

 

Anyone have some good pictures so I can work out if I can adapt one?

 

pascal and Bill do you have any photos and ideas on the length of cables etc.

Nice one, I need to know if I can fit a cable onto the bottom of the leaver to go backwards through the support tunnel. The cables on the back gearbox mount via the front on a custom made bracket, I suppose I could run longer cables and go round the back of the box though. Who makes custom length cables?

Hope your running the pickle this year Rob?

 

you can borrow mine if you like. see if it'll do what you want before taking the plunge

 

RCS Cables - sold in Uk by Ringspann Ltd (bedford), 01234 342511, I have one of their catalogues here if you give me some idea of what you want, i'll see if i can work our part numbers

bottom of lever has a m8 tapping so can fasten into it no probs

funny you should mention pickle - had the gearbox rebuilt and fitted it back in today, few special new bits in it new vibratecnics race compound engine mounts (old VT ones were well sloppy after 5yrs use), rebuilt golf VR6 driveshafts.....rocking again. MOT next couple weeks and back in action. 1st sprint at Aintree end of April, hopefully a shakedown trackday before that. Exciting

 

I think Dubsport used the vwms type shifter on their cars, and could disconnect one engine's shifter cables so that they could run one engine.

 

Rob,

Whats the goldy/brassy unit connected to the shifter, is it a spring pot to centralise the shifter?

 

Will have a look at the shifter to see which way I can run the cables, then decided on length of the cables, front ones will be as the original Corrado?MK4 length.

Must make a date to come and see the pickle, all plans went boobs up last year

 

yes, been playing with different spring rates and got it cracked now, less bulky version to come soon

 

come on rob, tell him....it's a load of plumbing fittings!!
