Is anyone aware of any sequential shifter kits available for the ZF 5-speed manual transmission? Not referring to SMG, talking about a true 3 pedal, just with a sequential shifter instead of H pattern for a dedicated track car. I know they make kits for other trans like T56 and R154. I have not seen any options aside from changing to a full blown race gearbox.

I have only seen these guys make sequential shifters for non-sequential boxes

I'm guessing bc there's not a mounting point on the trans/shifter box if you - those kits mount to the trans in place of the shifter- if you look at the input connection on a T56 vs ZF/Getreg, our shifters are remote mounted with a linkage

But reach out to them, clearly they know what they are doing and probably can answer why they dont make one for BMWs

looks like you can't order, and seems to be geared more toward Paddle Shifter/Pneumatic conversion, not just an adapter for a Forward/Back lever

Also for $4700 + you sending them your old trans to retrofit, you're like halfway there to a buying a brand new real sequential
