how to adjust ams short shifter??
 
hi, i did a search and didnt come up with anything

i was wondering if anyone can fill me in on this, i just received my ams short shifter, and they say it's height adjustable..that's cool and all, but how the heck do i do it? lol..i want it to be on the lowest setting, any help is greatly appreciated

Can you post some pictures of what you got?

I'm looking into the AMS or B&M shifter... just curious.

scratch that, called Z1 and they helped me through it, feel like a dummy it was so easy lol



and yeah i'm in the process of doing the pics now :)

also from what i've read, i hear the B&M shifter isn't the most popular, reason being you have to grind down a plate or something, the AMS slips right in and you don't have to modify anything

I got the short shifter today, and it seems to be a quality product, i do have 2 little 'problems' with it(not actual problems, just things i would like a tiny bit better

1: The shifter seems a little 'loose' you can say while it's in gear, like if i put it in fourth it has a lot of wiggle room in gear. not the biggest issue, but i definitely miss that from the OEM spec.

2this is minimal) the adjuster piece on the short-shifter(the black piece that spins freely till you pull up to adjust the height of the shifter) seems to rattle a bit, and it's quite noticeable when i shift. i'm going to try and put some type of filler(some type of foam or something) in it or something to stop it from rattling around.

all in all i'm happy with the product :)
