Evo3 and DSSR

I just picked up a Z4M.

Shift action and general performance is extremely poor.

Any others looking to pick-up a SSK? if so any interest in a trying to get a group buy going?

Just trying to gauge interest

Is the DSSR for Z4's available? UUC's website said it was coming soon last time i checked. I already have the Evo3 but if there's a group buy for the DSSR as well count me in. Only issue is that i'm in Cyprus.

I haven't found the shift action poor, it is a bit notchy, but I expected that. Are you sure the tranny isn't damaged somehow? Do you have trouble engaging gears or do you just not like the feel?

Tried a fee M coupes and they are all similar. In addition based on the feedback of others through a myriad of different forums and sources the opinions generally seem consistent.

Owning an S2000 also spoiled me in this regard.

Yes, S2000 is very slick, but I found to like the ZF type H gearbox, the knob does make a difference, but I'd be interested to know how the UUC DSSR matches up and removes some of that axial play.
