RF105 upgrade parts

Made the shifter in general it turned out ok but I thought it looked a bit bulky.

Put one into another RF owners car & with a few small mods it sharpened the shift up in a big way.
The design allows for sifting across the gate to be on the same axis as the stick pivot.

The only problem is it fliped the gate, 1st ended up in 2nd 3rd ended up were 4th is.
It could be rectifyed at the rear but it would have ment remaking it.
I ended up refinning it anyway & trimmed it down.

The alternative was to make a shifter with a reverse action.
What it does is when you push forward the shift tube moves back.
But it still allows it to rotate though the centre axis.
