Does any company make f1 style paddle shifters as a mod?

 

That would be sweet...I would like to know this also.

 

I saw a thread with a link to a company that did this... I'll see if I can find it. I know in Japan it's a factory option on our cars.

 

I want them, let us know if you find that link.

 

can u have these on auto's to use with tiptronic

 

i found this http://www.twistmachine.com/

 

Has anyone ever swapped out trannies. I have a six speed and would love to put in a dual clutch setup like what audi is using.

 

looks interesting, but I probably wouldnt give up my airbag for it.

 

What about getting the factory ones from Japan? They use the exact same wheel as ours, and have the factory paddles behind it.

 

is this guy serious

 

paddle shifters is a factory option for our car in japan...why cant someone just import a steering column/rack/watever the *** it is and put it on their car

 

btw...dual clutch like audi would be orgasmic..no more granny auto

 

What about the CVT 8 speed from Japan; has anyone tried to repalce that and what would be involved. Would you have to replace the gauges due to the 5 speed to 8 speed or would an ECU reflash cover that. I also wonder the cost of the trans and installation.

 

what is an 8 speed CVT...CVTs dont have gears?

 

The CVT has eight pre-selected ratios you can shift to in manual mode or it does it's own thing in auto.
