Javo I think your going to like the 7speed. There is even a very cheap and easy mod you can do. Yes I've done it to mine. It shortens the throw on the paddles. Your little brother should be Is the 350 stock? DL looking sharpe. You might have to get out on the fast road and enjoy your work.

The 350z has minor mods on it nothing major. He is 19 and this is going to be his nice car other than that 1999 volvo he has that is a tank. I still want to come up with some rules & regulations for him if he wnats to keep this car. He is going to UGA and if he does not do good and i dont see those report at the end of the semester, im going to take it from him. I hope he know im not playing around. I am still going to be paying for his inssurance and some gas. Other than that he has no other expence.

But i am interesting in the little mod for the paddle shifter. Could you elaborate?

This am was pretty boring driving my Fit to drop off the kid to school. Needed the oil temps high to do an oil change basically. Afterwards went recycling the oil and bought 2 cans of brakcleaner for a great deal. . Came home cleaned the interior and glass on the Fit, washed the car. Also polished out some scratches on the rear door... looks like a shopping cart nailed it. Who cares. LOL. Now finally relaxing.... got a buttload of chores to do in the pm... haha

Yup Javo have to lay down the law. I think he would rather drive a 350 than a volvo. LOL I know I would. The mod is installing small bumpers on the backside of the paddle where it comes out behind the steering wheel.
Have a 7AT? The best $2 mod ever!
I bought mine at Wal-Mart, they are about 1/4" and flat on top, clear rubber bumpers. Just pull paddle in like you are shifting and put on the back side. Let go and do the other. Have the car off when doing this and then test to make sure to paddles are not too close and activating the shifter when released. I had no issues. Kewl swifts foot. Ken you didn't take pics? LOL are you OK? Would the lugs work for stock wheels? Are they chrome or black?
