ok Just put a new ractive shift **** on my Z but now the shiftboot just slides down..Does anyone know where to get one other than the red stich one plus im kind of going for a brushed aluminum feel in the car.....(attracted to shiny objects) lol can anyone help me out plus i may be buying the Stillen Short shifter for it soon.....can anyone help me

 

Why pay so much for the Stillen unit when the Courtesy Nissan shifter is like half the price?

What color boot do you want?

 

i forgot all about the courtesy nissan one lol.............most likley black because the rest of the interior is black right now.

 

get a courtesy nissan factory boot, like twenty bucks. Why not get the red stitched boots and shifter? Very nice, IMO.

 

dont know.........but whats the courtesy URL i seemed to have misplaced it lol hehehe.

thnx rizz

 

I'm not sure a new OEM boot is going to fix the sliding down problem. I have an Nismo shift **** and it does the same thing but only about a 1/2 in or so. If you can rig soething for the boot to rest on so it doesn't slide all the way to the bottom that's your best bet I believe. And 2nd on the courtesy nissan short throw. however, a short throw isn't very beneficial IMO.

 

If when you take the shifter apart and remove the shift boot, you should notice that the boot is held in place by a plastic ring that keeps it from sliding down and moving.

 

That ring however was big enough to fit around the bottom of an OEM shift **** and a lot of aftermarket shift ***** have smaller bottoms. I wonder if you could put a smaller ring in there. Maybe try that.

 

I dont know i gotta get out there and do some expirementing but its really cold right now lol hahahah.

 

well i figure i say something about this. i had the same problem, and i solved it with electrical tape. u might need somebody to assist you with this one. i held my booth on my shifter where i wanted it, then i taped underneath the booth on the shifter so i created thicker shifter so the booth wouldn't slide off. this worked fine for me but if your booth is too lose on the top this might not be a solution. anyway good luck
