This is just my personal project.
As for paddle shifters I am pretty certain Ipd will not offer these but after I develop and install mine I might make a few kits for others.
It will all depend on how much work it takes...

Stock = 17mm (left)
Ipd standard = 22mm
Ipd track spec = 25mm
*Lucky drifto special = 28mm (right)

Now time to consider making a matching 27mm front bar.
*Credit to Danny on the 28mm rear bar, without him asking I would have never done it.

Thinking about changing from 18T to a 20G turbo since I've already produced all the parts to fit it to a white block. Limited to about 350 bhpfor my build and then make an off the shelf map for it, anyone at all interested in that?

Probably still do it whether anyone here likes it but helps me get a sense of whether to spend time making a ready to go kit...

You bet! I am already thinking I should have put a 20G or GT28 in...

Thanks!! The 28MM bar is awesome, when you come up here in November I'll let you whip it around!


27MM Front ?!?!?!?!?

I can't wait to discuss this project in Vegas! Also we need to talk about the 20G and rods.....

Oh I got a white R spoiler too :lol:

Just please sweet baby jesus, make the shifting quicker than the wretched geartronic in our cars, if you make it for P2s eventually.

Here's the paddle shifter control board.
Need to add a few power transistors but otherwise just need to write some code!

As for quickening P2 shifting just take a 10K ohm potentiometer and tap off the trans line pressure sensor. This way you can raise the trans pressure linearly. So you'll still have smooth/softer shifting at light throttle and more firm/quicker shifting at moderate to higher throttle.

buhaha, after time it will. Way off topic Lucky, but do you guys do the MTE auto-manual ecu remap? I should probably shoot you a pm with some questions.
