Its an auto shifter.

Pull up the fork and get it outta park, down to drive, push the fork in when in drive and it ratchets thru the gears 1, 2 and 3. Over drive is wired up to a little on/off switch near the snow / power switch.

Pull the old shifter off, position the new one, cut a hole in the tranny tunnel and run the cable thru. Some brackets courtesy of MV Autos adelaide where used. The cable setting and cutting the hole was the most difficult part.

It is certainly unique, and as u said, i dont think its for everyone lol.

Your install looks good with the manual surround. Iv got a BM pro ratchet in mine, i painted the case black as to not stand out so much but i like it.

Yeah thats cool how its black. Reason i wanted a mega shifter is cause the Pro Ratchet has been done before lol. But i havent seen one with the case painted black like that though lol. That very cool! :)

I got a bigger leather boot to sit around it to get rid of a lot of the chrome. Now it looks like the whole dash is coming out and will get painted in a colour a little less bright me thinks.

thinking of doing this sometime down the track

has anyone else done it or have any more pics?

are you guys running standard auto gear? or do you have manualized auto setups?

was thinking of going that route once ive finished engine mods etc, i hate how the auto kicks down off throttle would like to be able to hold a certain gear/more flexibilty possibly.

anyone have any comments on this?

3k stall and stage 2 shift kit is all mine has.

If ya wanna manualise it talk to Mike @ MV Automatics in SA.

If ya do manualise, dont get a megashifter. Pro Ratchet is easier to use. My megashifter is farking hard to punch around lol

Post your video here mate! :)

At Howie's request,

Here is the link to a video of my ratchet shifter getting used.

The switch to the right of the shifter is 4th gear, which is usually the o/d button on your stock T-bar.

Cheers to my brother for the camera work lol.

Let me know what you think.

i got a 4spd pro ratchett 4 my r33 do i need the button 4 overdrive or can i make it the 4th gear

You could in theory rig up the switch for the (on/off) overdrive by having it engaged when selecting the 4th gear, however, the mucking around ya gonna go through to get it sorted out properly IMO outweighs what its advantage its gonna have for you.

Be a lot easier to hook up a missile switch or a straight ON/OFF switch in the centre console area.

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch

      It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
