Just got my Coolerworx shifter - any tips on install or guide available for reference? This was a message I received from BlackFlagBudget on reddit who installed the shifter on his 350z. Apparently there was this bracket that needs to be removed, is that the same on the 370z?

You'll need to lower the transmission, but won't have to take it all the way out. Put the car on jack stands, put your jack underneath the trans, and remove the transmission mount. You'll be able to lower the trans just enough to get the bolts on the bracket out. They are small bolts and easy to break loose. The OEM shifter needs to be out first of course.

The oem shifter assembly support has to be removed. Here it is:



I ended up using a stubby 12mm (I think) wrench to get at the top bolts that are on top of the trans housing.
