I'm waiting to see what Richard over at AF comes up with for the S2, but in the meantime, has anyone seen or used the Rmagic SS made for the S2's?

I sent a webmail to them. I asked them if it'll work on the new, current model, versions of the RX-8. 2009 and up.

I await their response!

Paimon, you're not the only one waiting for a Series 2 SS to come out.

It'll be that time to get a new shift boot and shift **** when it comes out though. Im already drooling over the thought.

Last i talked to Richard he said he was planning on "making progress" this past weekend. Dont know what came of it yet, i feel bad repeatedly bugging him lol. I am almost tempted to start a "group buy" type thread to show him that we are dedicated.

We took IZZYrx8's car but the S1 does not fit the S2, development is going to take forever. <-period, the shifter on the 09s are not bad,

Not bad, maybe.

Able to be improved? Most certainly.

I lost Izzys number (again) and I need his car to do some testing.
Can you get hold of him for me or give me his number?

Roughly about 15 min with basic tools on hand. Richard Paul wrote down, and added measurements to what he had already gathered. Hes in the middle of blue priniting it, and as long as Ricard Paul and Izzy (car owner) are available, we may be looking at a Short Shifter within a month possibly.

Its a little bit more to remove than the S1.

I have pictures from removal, and will do the D.I.Y. when Ricard Paul has the shifter ready for production.
