Emailed some info to another SAU member and thought id post it up here aswell:

This shifter is used to prevent missed gear changes mainly in dog engagement gearboxes.

I messed up once and it cost me.

This is how it works.

The outer aluminum shaft of the shifter is spring loaded up and down, the first picture is in street mode you can freely shift into all gears.

Second picture is when its in drag mode, the outer shaft drops down and is ready for the 1st to 2nd shift.

Once the shifter passes the step it cannot jump back up and into 1st gear and can only go to 3rd.

In drag mode the shifter cannot be changed into 5th or reverse.

The front of the gear knob has a small U shape cut out, this is for the grub screw to fall into when its in street mode which holds the out shaft up...

The shifter has a aluminum spacer that bolts to the gearbox that raises the pivot point up like normal quick shifter... In a way is almost like a straight line shifter just pull it back and push it forward...

For normal use the standard shifter is much easier for daily driving with the dog box, it did take a little bit to of time to get the timing back for smooth operation of the dog gears but not to bad.

Sorry for the low quality iphone pics....

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
