Example picture attached. (I know the gears are not accurate, but the pic was just so you know what I was talking about)

from what ive read about people trying to do this on other manuals, this is really difficult. if you have a manual Z, just think about how much our shifters vibrate and move when we're either driving or idling.
also...imagine shifting with this. when you do a 2 > 3 shift, you tend to push to the upper right in one motion, with a metal gated shifter like this you'd have to shift up, then right, then up again. its not all that intuitive if you've actually driven one, which is why its not all that common.
anyway, if you manage to do it, cheers to you, it'd look awesome at a show!
