Jamaica · 05-17-2012, 11:55 AM

We will have the group buy with the people we already have on the list. WE have four more people added this week.

I will confirm all orders by saturday.

For anyone looking to do a 6MT console conversion, here's one for sale: New Boot Console FS

**FYI - The 6MT trim is not a direct fit for the 7AT shifter and modification WILL BE needed to both the console, and the shifter assembly. (Cutting/Sanding/Etc.) However, the result is very clean, and Often mistaken as a 6MT Z.

Is this moving ahead?

If only we weren't given expectations. lol

sloboi · 05-21-2012, 08:20 AM

1. captain-nok (titanium polish, with suade booth)
2. UNKNOWN_370 brushed aluminum, boot still pending a 370/carbon boot pic??? Please?
3. Xplicit97 burnt titanium
4. 370ZilverZ
5. muzik212 (brushed aluminum, dark gray boot like in photo)
6. EZT (brushed aluminum with an engraving and no boot)
7.
8.
9.
10.

Sorry, this took a while longer than I expected, and I splurged on Elysium's Tein Monoflex...going to have to take me off the list. I've also removed Zenki, as I've been following this thread, and it appears he's already gotten the GTR knob + stock boot. Thanks for your efforts, Jamaica, but it just took too long...

As people say patience is worth the while. The first three will be shipped out this week. I will pm the rest this week.

And FYI he is replacing it with our knob.

Thanks and have a nice day guys

Jamaica · 05-21-2012, 01:13 PM

captain nok and unknown please send me a pm.

NXTAZEE · 05-21-2012, 01:47 PM

These look pretty nice, I may be interested. What are the dimensions of the knob?

I'm not questioning the virtuosity of patience--it's rewards are not unknown to me. I believe the issue here was a lack of communication, as well as several timeline expectations, set by yourself, which were not met. I understand the issue may be minor for some, but I expect when told "x will happen on n," that it will happen--or that there be communication otherwise. I understand you are a busy person, and that these knobs/boots will most likely have excellent workmanship, but I am a little offended you brought patience into the equation.

That's my rant. I'm sure a couple of people here thought it as well. I would have left it alone, had you simply apologized for missing your own deadlines, rather than shifting the blame to your clients.

Good luck with the sales. I'm sure the end product will be beautiful.

When it comes to their cars, some people have patience. But theres a difference between no patience and missed timelines resulting in uncertainty on the consumers part. If I was told we are expecting this to be done by this date but a delay could possibly occur. If this happens Ill let you know, would have been OK. On a side note, the gtr shift knob and oem 370z boot I did looks completely OEM, and not a rehash of something I would have did in my younger days with my Acura Integra, no offense.

PM sent.

NXTAZEE · 05-21-2012, 07:11 PM

Ok, so I'm a little confused here. Are these shifters and boots ready to order or not?

NXTAZEE · 05-22-2012, 01:43 PM

Would someone be kind enough to let me know if these products are available to purchase. I torn between these shifters and another, but I'm not getting any answers here. Even tried a PM to jamaica. Must be on Jamaican time.
