Hello,I'm tired with my B&M short shifter,it feels to notchy,and I know that the 997 GT3 shift kit will fit but does anybody know that the 997GT3RS shift kit will fit?
Maybe the kit from the 997GT3 and the 997GT3RS are the same?

 

i was thinking about going to a short shift kit but i didnt want to lose the stock feel that i got used to.

 

ask viperbob, he did this experiment. he will freely share the results with you.

 

Using the stock 997 GT3 shifter (stress stock, not the GT3 short kit) has been a good compromise for me. Shorter than stock 996TT but still very smooth. It is also more robust than the stock 996TT. And best of all it is cheap...around $200.

 

Yes I looked into this as well I believe it was $230.00 from the dealer. The thing that got me though was that the part # was the same for the GT3, turbo, and cayman too..... thats why i was not to fast to pull the trigger, i wanted to research it a little more.

 

I tried my buddies 04' GT3 shifter, longer throw than my
OEM Porsche short shifter. But I liked it alot, not notchy
positive shift feeling. I am changing my tranny fluid and see
what difference it makes in the feel (especially cold)
See thread on cold transmission shifting (good info)

 

According to Porsche, the 997 turbo, 997 gt3, 997gt3rs all use the same shifter assembly

this was confirmed at two porsche dealers

 

Yes it's all the same,I ordered one and it will be installed this thursday.
I'll let you know what I think about it,at least it's very cheap,for the whole system it costs around 180$....

 

Do you have the part number?
Where is a good place to get one from mail-order in the US?

 

Id love a part # as well for confirmation.

 

Part number is: 997 424 010 000
Bought mine at a Porsche dealer in Belgium
Install will be done thursday,will let you know how I feel about it...

 

That may be true (or not!) but the 997 GT3 shifter most definitely has a shorter throw than the 996TT. Here is the original thread:

Gt3 shifter installed today,my impressions:
Maybe a little bit shorter than oem shifter but not much.
But:very very easy to shift , better than oem,I had the B&M shortshifter and it was to notchy for me.
I could be wrong but a friend of mine has a 997GT3RS and I think it shifts shorter than the setup I have now but shiftkit has the same porsche number.
Could it be because he has a shorter shiftknob?

 

After reading everyone's comments on here as well as Rennlist, I just bought the 997 GT3 shifter kit yesterday.

It will take 3-4 days to arrive but I will let you know what I think of it.

From what I gather, the shifting should be shorter and smoother than my 996 TT standard shifter but not as notchy as a short shifter.

 

Smooth it is...Shorter?? maybe a little bit,let me know what you think...
