I've thought about that on/off for the past 4 years...never did feel that it was appropriate for a Mini...but don't tell that to Nitromini...

 

Yeah, I have always liked the HURST, but its not a muscle car so I did not feel right buying that.

 

Ok Obe... Do you have 1 in your car? Would you have 1 in your car? I would. It would be just like the old real world. No?????

 

My little piece of Whalen goodness on the way! Thanks Msfitoy and Doug!

 

Very Nice minimarks, I should have mine on Thursday. Mine is the plain one though.

 

Thanks! I'm married, so I needed the shift pattern.....

 

good 1, that **** looks .

 

Thats cool. I thought about this, but being a college kid saving for a turbo build, that extra $15 is going else-where

 

Doug was able to re-machine my old "Benetton" **** and install one of his connecters. Feels great! I like the fact that it's about an inch taller than the ball ****.
Thanks Sid for the insperation and Thanks Doug for the awesome work!!



Jim

 

Very cool looking.

 

i think if u put the alcantara JCW seats in your car , you will not slide as much as the leather ones.
my opinion is they are a lovely addon and i think there much cooler and original then leather.. but they are pricy though...(but u can afford )

 

Man your Benetton looks great.
Here is my new Misfit shifter...

 

Doesn't it feel great? I noticed that it works better than anyother design during quick shifting...can't wait for prototype #2...

 

What are your thoughts about finger grooves?

About 10:00 last night I finally got sick of working, so I goofed around with this a bit.
After 14 hours, everything else counts as MY time; so I get to do what I want!

 

SLEEP?

that grooved one is awesome. hmmmm....runs to wife asking for permission to order new **** for birthday present, with a yinyang on the top of course

 

Looks good, but a little small. Is it the same size as Sid's?

 

Yep, same size.

I should've have used white Delrin instead of black; that would make it look bigger.

 

Doug did you have a early night?

Glad to see these getting out to the mini community. One of the best mods I have

 

You are right it is the best feel during quick shifting.

Phototype #2? oh boy

 

[quote=jeffc;1789439]Doug did you have a early night?

Don't know why, but I woke up this morning feeling like someone had been dancing on my neck all night.

Then our well pump went out first thing this morning; and while the plumber was here pulling out the pump, someone walked in the shop with a rush job.

Now Wally has stolen my comfy chair, leaving me with the crummy plastic one.

Welcome to my world.

 

I like the finger grooves! Wish it was around way back when I bought my ****...

Doug, are the Derlin ***** cheaper than the metal ones?

 

That happened to me last year of course I was in the shower and a my head full of shampoo. My wife used a gallon of water from the refrigerator and it gave me brain freeze and a headache I'd never forget.

Hey why didnt that cat kill that bird you had in the shop? I'd say Wally is a slacker

He wanted to.
The pigeon never came down that low. He actually spent the night sitting on the roof of my shop, then woke up and flew back home (I guess).

He does a real good job on the mice that come around at night. That's good enough for me.

 

Hey Doug...what do you think of this?

 

Compensating? j/k.
