Also my shifter feels like it's broken lol even though it's solid as a rock and I know it's installed properly.

The only other one I might consider would be the 997 GT3 shifter as it uses metal bushings where the stock has plastic.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have a 2004 C4S and will use this as a DD (85% street) and track days (15%).
What OEM SSK would work best for my 911? 996 GT3 ssk, 997 ssk, cup car cables, etc?
Please help. Thank you in advance!!
yes a dog box is going to be his best option.... everyone is so sarcastic on here.....
most of my track cars run just oem shifters since i hate knotchiness, i do enjoy the feel of a shorter throw but its not worth the misshifts. but you cant go wrong with a b&m ssk.
hopefully someone can chime in about the 997 oem shifter.
Here is a B&M like new that a friend is selling. Even comes with the housing (normally you use your own housing)

The 997 shifter is as smooth as butter and the throw is reduced by 15%, so it's a noticeable difference. I myself have the agency power SSK, which reduces the throw by a whopping 35%, but I fully agree with Kris79, I HATE the notchiness and I hate to admit it but if you get a bit lazy with the shifter it's easy to mis shift and/or not fully engage. Also my shifter feels like it's broken lol even though it's solid as a rock and I know it's installed properly. Overall, reducing the throw by too much is not necessarily a good thing as most aftermarket SSKs aren't as smooth as oem. I'm probably going to switch to oem 997 for a better and more accurate shifting experience.
I actually went from stock to B&M to 997 to 997 ssk. I will be adding a B&M transmounted adapter for further reduction in conjunction with the 997 ssk.
All it took was a few missed shifts and the constant additional shift effort for me to get rid of my B&M. Wanted something short but refined which the B&M didn't offer, for me at least.
Thanks guys. I figured the OEM 997 SSK would be the way to go. I have read that the cup cables is an additional component that will help this mod. How does that help, does it just beef it up?
Try the OEM 997 ssk first and see how you like it.
Cup Cables are pretty expensive and not sure if you might or might not notice anything unless you got lots of money and time...
Thank you.
Next question, where to buy a new OEM 997 SSK for the best price.
Here are the mods i am doing in the next few weeks for the new track in Mason County, WA called "The Ridge"
Recaro PP in black leather
Power Roll Bar
Shroth harness
997 SSk
Track only wheels & tires
Willwood hidden trailer hitch
Swapped out my B&M for a 997 SSK. It it less notchy during shifts. Liked the B&M over the stock, and like the 997 SSK over the B&M, however, it is not as drastic a change as stock to B&M.
I bought mine from Sunset Imports in Oregon, it was four twenty something plus shipping. Suncoast in FL was about the same price, but I buy a lot from Sunset so I stuck with them. Both places typically have the best prices for OEM parts.
I picked up a 997 shifter last year and throws are shorter and tighter than the stock 996 shifter. A bit notchy when cold but that goes away in 5-10 min. Given my experience with the stock 997 shifter, I think the SSK might be a bit much. The only other one I might consider would be the 997 GT3 shifter as it uses metal bushings where the stock has plastic.
