who has a good deal on the skip shift jumper/part to stop it from doing that 1 to 4 thing???

 

Radio shack, make your own.
Here's an example on a 4th gen, may apply similarly to a 5th gen:

Or you can check SLP, I think they offer one pre-built.

 

Wish GM would've learned from the past and got rid of that. Gotta love government mandated fuel economy, eh?

 

Better than the gass guzzler tax IMO.

First thing I did was install SLP Skip Shift Eliminator when I got my car.

 

Would someone mind giving me a quick tutorial on the skip shift?

I'm new to the Camaro and when I drove mine for the first time, the skip shift thing completely threw me for a loop. I thought there was something wrong with the car until I saw the little 1/4 graphic on the driver information center.

Why does the Camaro have this? Any reason other than fuel economy?

Can you use a skip shift eliminator in California?

If you install an aftermarket hurst shifter, will you still need the skipshift eliminator?

Nope!

Good question. I know that I have seen "Not legal for use on pollution controlled motor vehicles." mentioned in the product descriptions.

Yes, the two don't effect each other.

 

Cool, thanks Jason! I'm still not sure about the "not for use on pollution controlled vehicles". Because technically, ALL vehicles sold in the United States have been pollution controlled since the introduction of the catalytic converter right?? So is that statement applicable only to states like California, or is it referring to federal emissions?

 

I'm using one right now in California.

 

Yeah I suppose you'd just have to unplug it when going in for an emissions test.
