Hi Everyone,

First, I'd like to thank all of you for expressing such an overwhelming interest in our products.

I thought I would post here and update you all at once rather than continue to answer all of the individual e-mails we have been receiving on this subject. Due to the number of individual requests we have received for this part we are proceeding with a preliminary prototyping session for the Maxima. This session will give us a better idea of what we are dealing with in terms of design/manufacturing issues as well as an estimate of how long the part will take to develop.

As soon as I have any news concerning the design and prototyping I'll update everyone here.

Thanks again for your e-mails.

Good Stuff

 

Thanks for the update, Karel! You have a very anxious pool of potential customers here (through Cattman Performance, of course ), so please keep us informed.

Also, if you need anything from us Maxima owners, please let us know - I'm sure that we can provide you with anything you may need in terms of parts, answers, test cars, etc...

 

I'm in, E-mail sent. Hopefully this comes out soon.

 

can't we use the nismo kit that spec V's use?

 

spec-v's don't have the collar around the shifter to keep from hitting Reverse by accident when going for 6th gear. i think that's what the hang up is.

 

ooo i see. kool thanks

 

awesome!!!!! if it goes through .... so many people will buy those, me included.... just wondering, in response to the post about spec v's....what if we just remove the reverse blocker.....i think its kinda hard to miss 6th and put it in reverse....even if you try, it wont let you.. so..

but hey hope everything goes smooth!!!!

 

my friend has a spec v and he says that he's accidentally hit reverse when going for 6th a few times, mostly when he first got the car. it won't go into Reverse but it'll grind. when i go for 6th i just put the shifter to the far right and then down. if a spec-v owner did the same, he'd hit Reverse.

btw, i said i think that's what the hang up is. i could be wrong

 

i hope this happens REAL soon, as the 05+ max and the alti SE-R are going to have short throw shifters from the FACTORY that we can buy cheap from Dave B

 

on the pictures the alti shifter looks awfully long..... i like the shifknob on it though , might have to visit my local nissan dealer soon

 

Sts! Sts! Sts!

 

Problem is that will they fit. I called Dave B up and he's wondering if they are gonna be a simple take out and put back in aka plug and pray

 

Keep it up you guys... those of you who haven't sent your email yet, please do so....

and to the one person who said Why Bother on the poll, you're not allowed to purchase one when they come out.

 

lol


i got a reply from them, im sure many of us did...

 

keep them fingers crossed boys!

 

Email sent....I really hope this works.

 

I did send the email hope this works for you guys.

 

I sent an e-mail if one comes out i am definitely in

 

it this doesnt work..05 alti SE-R and 05 max come with short throw shifters....i am tired of waiting....

 

I have sent another email to them. Here is a copy of it. Im sure we have sent them the link a ton of times, but we gotta let em know we are serious.

Hello. I sent you an email on 9/1/04 regarding short throw shfters for the 2k2-2k3 Maxima. I wanted to check back in for an update on the prototyping and production schedule. I'm sure you have received a ton of emails from the guys and gals as there is a sizeable thread on Maxima.org about you guys creating one. Here is the link if you care to have a look. Thank you very much for your time. http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....3&page=1&pp=30

 

Email sent. It sure would be great to have an STS!

 

i can't believe you'd sell the car over not having an STS, it's a nice thing but man your buggen.


Just get a better clutch for now, i'ms ure it will come out eventually.

neither one will work, they dont have the reverse lockout

EDIT..

SE-R shifter that i have coming

 

I thought you were eliminating that?

 

Here's the email I received today from TWM....might be promising if it's "next on the list".......


Thanks for your e-mail. Sorry for the delayed response, we've been very busy with car shows lately.

We will be making a shifter for the Maxima however at this point we can't pinpoint a date when it will be available. At this point it is the next product on our list for development though.

Thanks,

Not to burst anyones bubble, but the SE-R shifter is only $50. if it works, i doubt anyone will buy anything else..nothing beats OEM stuff

 

Update as well:

Hi Roy,

Thanks very much for your e-mail. We'll definitely be developing the Maxima shifter however we have experience some delays due to internal changes in the company. At this time I can only tell you that it will be made, but not, regrettably, when.

Thanks,

TWM Performance
