scenic shifter info needed

[LeeRS]

Wondering what you are combining with the scenic shifter setup.

Are you:

A. using just the shifter with not stiff shift.

If so, how does it feel?

B. using it with a yanoo kit.
If so, which kit are you using.

C. Any other modification setup.

Have just had a few mixed pieces of advice so am a bit confused what to go for.

 

[NorthloopCup]

@bashracing will be able to advise mate.

Standard scenic = sloppy as the clio set up.
scenic with yanoo = perfect for daily/road/track car use, Takes around 50% of the sloppiness out.
Pure MS shifter = for men only! track use, it will do your tits in fitted to a daily.

I'm using it with yanoo 3.0 and when it was all new it felt amazing, very stiff and precise. I just have a bit of an ongoing issue with something causing slop.

I'd recommend bending the gearstick backwards though. It's way too close to the radio as standard .

 

[LeeRS]

My standard shifter isn't sloppy though. Feels nice and tight. Maybe it already has a stiff shift. Can I check under the gaiter to see?

 

[bloke]

just get pms one, the scenic one is the same set up so you're only really getting a longer shifter and a gaiter that doesn't fit on the shaft properly.

 

[LeeRS]

I would if I could afford one lol.
Cant see them on their website either?

 

[bashracing]

I wouldn't recommend a PMS in a daily unless you have sadomasochistic tendencies

 

[LeeRS]

Haha, that bad? I heard they vibrate quite a lot.
Come on, what shall I do. Ive got the shifter, just need to know what to put with it. Ocd will not allow me to settle on something untill I know full details.

 

[bashracing]

It sounds like this after a while

Where's the slop? The small bush (plastic) below the gearstick its self can either break or run its cause.

Also I have the scenic shifter with the 1.0 and find it great for what I need.

I wish I knew. Tried changing a few bushes now and it's not sorted. It's not the one under the gearstick as thats brass and been replaced with the yanoo!

PMS is like £200 more expensive? Not like it's a direct alternative @bloke

 

[DanGPR]

Anyone got a part number for the Scenic shifter? There's none on eBay at the moment, might see if I can get one new from Renault.
And are the Stiff Shift kits still being produced and sold?

Glad I cancelled PMS if Dumb and Dumber aka @LeeRS @imprezaworks Come into tune changing gear.

 

[debussetti]

Scenic Shifter, Yanoo Stiff Shift 3.0, extra inch taken off the linkage.
I like that the 3.0 allows you to dial in the stiffness, and the Scenic Shifter and shortened linkage put the stick in a much nicer place.
Would definitely get my vote on a road car.

just get pms one, the scenic one is the same set up so you're only really getting a longer shifter and a gaiter that doesn't fit on the shaft properly.

The tower is higher on the Scenic shifter, and raises the gear knob significantly, and for cost/effort, I don't think it can be faulted.

 

[bloke]

you'll all change your tune when dan finally gets one and doesn't stop raving on about it:wink:

 

[LeeRS]

So, back to original post.
Will stiff shift 1.0 work with the scenic shifter as I can get one on order.

 

[imprezaworks]

Mine works. I've told you mate

 

[LeeRS]

True.

 

[masekwm]

Do it properly and fit a PMS one

 

[LeeRS]

Zzzzz

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol!!!!

 

[Gibbo4k]

Can you get the stiff shift kit without the stick as I have the scenic stick fitted but it is sloppy compared to the original one. I'd have a pms one but don't want it vibrating all the time.
Thanks

 

[bloke]

they don't vibrate all the time, vibration is minimal on them.

 

[LeeRS]

@Gibbo4k you have a scenic shifter without stiff shift?

 

[Gibbo4k]

Yea mines normal bushes inside its not too bad really only I have a civic type r as my everyday car and it makes the clios gear shift feel really crap. Mite just get a pms one I think

 

[LeeRS]

Just going to use normal bushes in mine. If its crap I will change it over.
Its proving hard to get hold of a stiff shift.

 

[Gibbo4k]

I didn't even know they did one for the scenic shifter but guessing it's the same as the Clio one.

 

[LeeRS]

Anyone got a link to that thread where it has pics of where you need to chop the linkage and by how much to lean the gearstick towards the driver slightly please?
Cant use the search bar on this phone for some reason.

I did mine a few months ago and cut off approx 2cm, went back to it this weekend just gone and probably cut the same off again.
The female sleeve now pretty much bottoms out on the male section you cut so I wouldn't want to do anymore (it'll make sense when you look at it).
Oh and definitely do what the thread says and mark it so you know where the two parts slide back together, I lost my mark and only had a couple of gears causing myself 10 mins of trial and error getting it set up again.

 

[LeeRS]

Cheers for that mate. Makes sense.

 

[LeeRS]

Just read all that, says towards the end of the thread that no cutting is necessary.

 

[Ills]

It's a sleeve joint, yes you can just slide it a bit further together but you can't do it enough to notice a difference in my experience. Either cut the male part down, or as someone has suggested on that thread there's nothing stopping you from cutting the female section down and re-cutting the notch so it can still clamp up on the male part.

 

[LeeRS]

Ah, I see.
I think I will need to be underneath to get the full picture.
I don't have to stretch really far for the stick so will just go a bit at a time.

 

[Ills]

Yeah it's makes a lot more sense when it's in front of you!

 

[imprezaworks]

You can slide it yes. You need to cut a bit off. Tony hunter did it ages ago, that's my first memory of it.

 

[LeeRS]

Love a bit of angle grinding.

 

[dann2707]

Don't do it, I beg you. It makes it short and hit the manifold. And you end up resting against it in second gear and it resonates through the gearstick when you're in gear.

Bend the gear stick back. It's what i'm doing this weekend!
