Mach 5 Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 def better than the rear I had those Hankooks in the front which basically eliminated the understeer almost completely but the oversteer was acting up I had Falken 912's in the rear. I think with a better tire in the back it would eliminate the oversteer and my 3 wheeled turns. The Hankooks did get pretty sticky and started to gum. It also got rid of my wheel hop issue as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mach 5 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Does anyone have a shift cable for a Getrag 284 its the one on the drivers side of the shifter? It broke at the trans shift link so now Im stuck. If anyone knows what will work in place or where I can get one that would be great. I also put this in the classifieds.

slick Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I am not sure that they are available new anymore, however you can have them rebuilt/remade. I think Independentfool had them remade in his old Z34 (now owned by GOT2BGM). I'm sure he can get you the contact information for the place that did his, or you can find a place locally that can fab something up. Â Otherwise, I'm sure you can sweet talk someone into going to a JY and pulling the cables for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach 5 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I heard something about the 282 trans cables working is this correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 those are hard to come by too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach 5 Posted October 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 some pics of carnage. This sux I need my car. I feel that the reason why it failure this way was because of the brass bushing causing lack of movement with the linkage. This I believe caused the fracture. I may end up just welding an end on I really dont know yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach 5 Posted October 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 thats not good news:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 i broke 2 cables when i first did my swap; i suspected the culprit was the heat generated from the downpipe. i know there is heat wrap of sorts from the factory, but i did my own wrap from the top down and haven't broken a cable since. Â i know that doesn't help you fix what you're dealing with, but may or may not be useful input for the next cable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach 5 Posted October 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Im gonna have to look into that. Im going to Airweld today to get some gas for my welder then Im going to weld a bolt on to the end of the broken cable and tap the endlink with the new threads. That should at least get me going I hope. Â Yours broke in the same spot?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 yes, both times that's right where it broke. the best i can tell they weren't really designed to take that kind of heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 i was lucky enough that there were 2 5spd w cars in the yard by me upstate, and luckier still that it hasn't happened again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
