    When i go to the track i leave mine in 3 & do my burnout's in 2. Manual shifting is fun on the street, but i never do it @ WOT. Bad thing's can happen! I love driving down the street kinda slowly & downshifting to 2, then bring the RPM's up & punch it a little. Man, i'll throw you back in the seat! LOL

    Yep, i leave it in "3"! My T hold's 3rd. till right after the finish line. Even w/ my DR's there's no reason to shift to 4th.

    You have to change your transmission if I'm not mistaken.
    You'll see theres two different part numbers for trannies with floor and column shift. Maybe it's simpler than that just change the linkage perhaps? but the presence of that thumb switch tells me different.
    Idk which I prefer I've owned titans with column and floor in that order the thumb switch on the column is sweet and not having to reach up to the column to shift is convenient. The column is more traditional of a truck it took me a minute to adjust to the idea of a floor shifter I've always imagined them in cars. It is comfortable though I do miss the bench seat having the extra seat when needed but I like the privacy feel of captains chairs.

    Hi there, honestly that would be a custom job but if you want to do that, you would want to get important parts of your project with genuine nissan truck parts. That way if something wrong happens with your conversion, you can still have it covered under warranty
