In short,

. I cant imagine there's any discernable advantage to having a gated shifter (2k2/3) versus the normal shifter (Y2k/2k1). For me, it was NOT a particular selling point for me when I got my Max; w/o SS, what's the point. just my $.02

I doubt it's possible. We don't have shift linkage...

My buddy who drives an automatic 99 wanted to do the same thing. The reason being that when he drives "aggressively" he shifts it himself and one time he hit the shifter by accident at high RPMs and it wasn't pretty.
