1. Pull down chrome collar and carefully unscrew and remove the stock shift knob.
2. Remove the front console cover. Pull up from the front to unclip the clips and remove from the vehicle.
3. Remove the 2 screws securing the front part of the console. Remove any additional screws that may be holding the center part of the console in place, this may vary by year and model. Lift the 2 tabs shown to the right over the center section of the console so that they rest on the outside of the console assembly.
4. Spread the front sections of the console away from the center console to unclip the 2 clips securing them in place. This may be simplified by pushing from the inside with a hard object next to the clip.
5. Pull the center console to the rear of the vehicle ensuring the sides of the front section of the console remain apart and out of the way. Lifting from the rear up and over the handbrake, the console can now be removed from the vehicle.
6. Disconnect the shift cable from the original shifter by removing the cotter pin and sliding the cable off the pin. Remove the four bolts holding the shift assembly to the floor pan and pop out the stock bushings. Replace the bushings with the Aluminum TWM bushings and bolt down the assembly again using the M8 x 24 washers and stock bolts.
6. Install the TWM shift adapter by sliding it on to the original shift cable mounting point. Be sure to rotate it back so that the flat back portion rests against the shift rod.
7. Cover the shift housing with a rag to catch any drill chips. Use the TWM short shift adapter as a guide and drill through the rear hole in the adapter, through the stock shift lever with the drill bit provided.

SpeedTracer User Guide

SpeedTracer User Guide

After buying all those aftermarket products, aren’t you curious if any of them really improved your vehicle’s performance? Maybe you’re simply curious about what your vehicle is capable of?

Measuring performance is as important as selecting the products that grace your vehicle. The two go hand-in-hand. With SpeedTracer, we’ll help you get answers to those questions. AutoEnginuity’s SpeedTracer performs vehicle performance analyses by communicating directly with your vehicle through the OBD-II connector. It will retrieve RPM, MPH, ambient temperature, and barometric pressure.

Using the weight of the vehicle, the tire circumference, and the live vehicle data, it will compute how far the vehicle has travelled in a quarter of a second. Using Newton’s equation for force, SpeedTracer will use all the live and inputted data to determine the horsepower and torque. What’s more, SpeedTracer uses the SAE J1349 standard for environmental variable corrections, so that these variables will no longer skew your results.

Now you can perform your dynamometer and acceleration tests at your leisure and on your schedule—without expensive hourly rates. I hope you have just as much fun using SpeedTracer as we did making it..
