Percyfilth Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I get vibration through the gear stick and it is getting worse. Could it be the gearbox mount or something else ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umster Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Not sure but I have my old OEM one lying around if you decide to purchase a replacement - hope it's nothing too serious https://www.350z-uk.com/topic/125265-370z-oem-transmission-mount/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEADPHONES Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) 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 Maybe post up where you are so you can compare knobs with other members nearby Edited June 4, 2020 by HEADPHONES 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee370Z Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I like the fact that the gearstick wobbles about a lot on my 370Z, my S14a 200SX used to do exactly the same and I presume that they are designed that way to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umster Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Personally I'm just surprised at how much gear shifts change when you swap over to a better knob 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
