Drummer Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Is there any difference between a 282 and 284 shifter. I found a shifter in a 88-89 gp and thought it might work but wasn't sure if the cable links were different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I think they are different because the 284 shifter is a square style and the 282 is round, I think that is what I remember reading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 GP is round, CS and Z34 is flat, 282 or 284 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I put a round 282 shifter in my 284 equipped Z34 I had to grind the pin for the shift cable off and weld the 284 pin from my z34 flat shifter on. The select cable hooked up fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Ah I see, Wonder why they did that? Does it feel any different when shifting? I havent driven a 5 speed cutty or a lumi 5 speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 No not really, I custom shortened my gp shifter, but did it because it allows the use of pretty much any shift knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AL Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Are the GP and Lumina shifters interchangeable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 as long as the gp shifter is from a 284 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psych0matt Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 Matt, where did you get that knob (and boot)? That's exactly the knob I've always wanted if I ever got a 5 speed car. Well... I might want one now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Got it from a guy on Pennocks Fiero Forum that recovers GM stock knobs with your choice of leather / stitching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 boot is stock, just rolled the neck down inside itself to account for the shortened shifter (I cut it and rewelded it at the base) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOT2B GM Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I'm looking at a custom knob for my TGP for when I eventually 5 speed it. If you figure out what you want I can combine it into my order and ship it to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) I'm looking at a custom knob for my TGP for when I eventually 5 speed it. If you figure out what you want I can combine it into my order and ship it to you. I pretty much know what I want, but I'm not in a hurry just yet. I'd like to find another one first and get two done just to have a spare though. Let me know when you're ready, cuz Im ready whenever. I know he said he was taking a break soon to move, so I don't know if that's something you were keeping in mind. ahh, i see that you posted there. Keep me informed, since I cant post there?
