Gear stick vibe

I'm not sure about the getting worse bit but the 350z has a very characteristic vibe through the gear knob.

At first it did my head in.

Was buzzing in my hand lime a rampant rabbit with a broken off switch.

Now when I drive the zed after driving the wife's car its reassuringly lively like a dog tugging on a lead itching to go out for a walk :teeth:

Maybe post up where you are so you can compare knobs with other members nearby :lol:

Vibratechnics mount is what you want 

It changes the drive dramaticly for the better 

 

I'd agree that a poly aftermarket mount makes the drive feel much more connected but if vibrations in the gearstick are the issue, doubt going this route will settle the nerves B)

I suppose so 

The 370z manual box is a agracutral old thing isn't it 

 

 

Nice and strong though :lol:

Personally I'm just surprised at how much gear shifts change when you swap over to a better knob :lol: cracks me up every time I say that. 

 

But yeah a good gear stick and a good transmission mount is the way forward for spirited drive.
