I want the wood grain shifter from the I35, but I have an I30. How can I leave the overdrive on and install the wood shifter?

 

I still want to know if I could modify and install the entire I35 gated shifter. I was asking if someone could take a picture of the shift linkage under the console so I could compair and see if it could be done without too much work. I am almost certain it is the same tranny.

As for just replacing the stick. You probably would lose O/D off unless you hooked up a button to the dash or something. Even then I think it would be too much work and not look very good.

Do a search on Maxima automatic shift *****. I know there are some aftermarket ones, but the ones I have seen dont look very good.

 

I dont know if this is what you ment, but if you did replace the shifter, the overdrive would always be on. You just wouldent be able to turn it off.

 

the tranny should be the same but i have seen shift ***** for the auto w/od at autoaccessorystore.com its got a nice look to it its just not wood

 

I have seen a few (with the O/D) that looked ok, but when installed they looked really bad because they were WAAAY too tall.

 

I could live with that. I have been driving with the O/D on without problems or need to switch it off. So basically make sure the O/D is on before I install the wood shifter?

 

o/d turns back on when you start the car so its automatically going to stay on all the time.

 

Buy an the whole car (and 255hp), not just the shifter! Hehe

 

Cool...thanks
