You sold yours pretty quick didn't you? Do they run an oem shifter guide plate? Not sure if not running one effects anything or not.

Just saying not everyone is taking the casing off or cutting it. I think an ls1 with a cd009 is considered a swap? Just not a good one obviously. I just wanted to see if there was a way to tell if my g35 had a cd009 that I didn't know about yet with out pulling it apart, since no one has a straight answer if 05 g35s have them or not. Sorry I didn't know what diagram shows the difference between the two in the 64 pages. lol Settle down bud

I used mine for one season, only because the s999 ones where not out in time and the cbf one wasnt to easy to get. The GK sat way to far back for my liking, especially since I installed my jz as close to the fire wall as I could.

But when I installed the GK shifter first, I had the bracket not quite right, and this made 1st, 3rd, and 5th gear not fully engage, allowing them to pop out easily, I re adjusted the bracket and they then it worked, I only used the shifter for 3 events last year.

That sucks, did it have to do with the 350z and g35 shifter mounting points being different? Also don't you have to cut the shifter shaft down for the gktech shifter as well? Luckily I got a serialnine one when they came out, although the newer redesign would be nice since side to side movement is nonexistent in their v1.
