We Make The Shifter In This MX-5 Feel AMAZING

Описание к видео We Make The Shifter In This MX-5 Feel AMAZING

Shifter rebuild kits for Mazda MX-5. Can a few bits of plastic and a couple of metal wave washers really make that big of a difference? It's rumoured they do, so we install one on the car with the sloppiest shifter in the fleet. Dan insisted his shift feel was fine, despite never having rebuilt the shifter himself.

Odds are, if you've not done a maintenance on the shifter, it would probably benefit from one. With no record of ever being rebuilt, Dan's Evolution Orange MX-5 was the perfect candidate for a full set of bushes, washers and gaskets from Mazda, Beatrush and Jass Performance.

Unable to resist an excuse to drive someone else's car, Leigh takes the MX-5 out for a rip to find out just how bad the shifter feels. Whilst winding through the local touge, a wild RX-7 FD appears. The chase is on through the country lanes and the missed shifts are racked up mercilessly until it's time to bring the MX-5 back to HQ.

However, rebuilding a shifter isn't only about improving the shift feel. The two rubber gaskets that keep all the oil in the shift turret and smells out of the cabin regularly deteriorate. Exhaust fumes aren't our favourite car scent, and when we dig into Dan's interior we find out if his are still in serviceable condition.
