- Apologies for any weird sound in advance!
Part one of two manual transmission upgrades!
These two combined give the effect of an almost gated manual transmission.
Part two includes the process and fitting of detent springs and selector springs! On an FN2 which I have not yet seen yet!
What these parts do:
Detent spring - this enable the shift into gear to be more positive with a definite click and firmness when it’s sucked in.
This enables quicker harder shifting
The selector springs - These pair perfectly with the detents. They increase the neutral centering of the shifter hardness to enable an amazing 2nd to 3rd shift and protecting you from the dreaded 1-2-1 money shift!

If you haven’t done this yet do it!
Just had my first drive after fitting all four items. I’ll give you one word
Phenomenal ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Get this done yesterday!
Most drastic positive change I’ve done to this car since supercharging! ❤
Hey Matty ,these are smashing how to videos mate. Looking forward to the drive out and verdict chap😁👌👍
Haha it should have been today mate but a clip boinged off and into another dimension 😂😂.
Next day’d new ones from Tegiwa so tomorrow quick road test and reaction video!
Those Detents look perfect to fix our problem, we sometimes find we cannot get into first gear when the car is stationary but fine when rolling to a stop.
Thanks dude
Let me know how you get on with them! Not many people dare tackle this job, so hopefully more will now
@@Matty_Champwhite Aw scaring me now haha. Do you have links to buying them?
@@MotorMonkeyzjust have a second person there for doing the selector springs and you’ll be fine!
Links are in the description matey
@@Matty_Champwhite Thanks!
@@MotorMonkeyz results are in! Wow!!
Matty nice Job. will have a look at this mod . keep up the nice work . Daddy T.
Well time to add more things to my modification list 😂
It’s such an underrated mod dude, do it!
AHH man, i would love to do this to mine... i dont suffer from syncro issues or a massive amount of slop in the stick but it does feel a bit hard to find gears sometimes. I think i need to look for another car to get to work and back before i even attempt this.
This exactly how man was, just a bit sloppy with no other issues.
I highly highly recommend it
@@Matty_Champwhite Massively tempted pal, not going to lie. Love the sound of the changes in yours now... almost ASMR like :''). Ive been looking for a cheap AUDI a2 or a C2 vti recently to just get me about for a month or so, so i can get bits done on the car but the bank balance isn't agreeing with me at the moment haha.
Hey do you know if the fn2 and fd2 type r shifter cables are interchangeable? Seems no aftermarket brands have shifter cable kit for fn2… my shifter cable is bent and will need to be replaced anyway.. but honda genuine stock one costs almost the same as the hybrid racing one so wonder if theres any solution to use one of the cable kits from them.
@@hkgkagami I know the cables are likely different as the aftermarket ones list a different part number per models.
Little help sorry
I have issues going into second would these springs be the issue ? 1.8 type s
@@stefanmills2266 these do help engagement, but most likely worn synchros in your case, sounds like a gearbox rebuild job
