VY II SS
Ive got a vy ss and the transmission is really notchy in and out of gears, im looking into getting a rip shifter from what ive heard they are quite good to get rid of the notchyness and make 2nd to 3rd alot easier.
Does anyone have one on their the ss m6?
any replies appreciated
Thanx

How much did it set you back?
Let me know what sort of difference you feel in the gear changes and notchiness after you get it in.
Cheers

Rip shifters are brilliant especially if set up properly.

i run one in my vx ss m6 and hate driving anything without one. makes changing gears easier 2-3 brilliant just push it forward and they find 3rd for you, if you pull it to the right you may hit the gap inbetween 3-5. take a bit of getting use to but thats like anything.
