A Gated Shifter Mod for Dual-Clutch FerrarisRezvani MotorsCar enthusiasts are well aware that the dual-clutch transmission has taken over the modern sports car scene. It's a logical development; the DCT offers quicker shifts and improved efficiency compared to a traditional manual. However, the dual-clutch 'box fails to offer the same level of driving engagement as a manual, which is why the stick shift is seeing something of a comeback. Ferrari, for example, dropped the gated manual transmission almost 20 years ago, only to bring it back earlier this month in the form of the limited-edition 12Cilindri Manuale—which provides an electronic clutch pedal and a gated shifter to control the dual-clutch the old-fashioned way when desired.But let's be honest, unless you're on Maranello's best-friends list, you probably won't be able to get a 12Cilindri Manuale. Luckily, there's an alternative. California-based Rezvani Engineering and Italy's Studio Carrozzi have partnered up to create the "Rezvani Quick Shift" conversion — a $25,000 kit that offers a manual transmission-like experience for the Ferrari 458, Ferrari 488, Ferrari F12, and Ferrari GTC4 Lusso models. And its creators say it's also being developed for dual-clutch Lamborghinis and C8-gen Chevrolet Corvettes.The kit, which was brought to broader attention by Carscoops, is fully reversible. But there is a catch that manual transmission diehards out there may not be happy about: it's still a two-pedal car. The 12Cilindri Manuale has a clutch pedal, although it isn't physically connected to a clutch; instead, it operates electronic switches that control clutch action. However, while it's hardly cheap, the Rezvani Quick Shift does have advantages in the availability and price department versus Maranello's latest, and you do still get that satisfying clank when you move the shifter. Being able to do that in an F12berlinetta might be all many enthusiasts could want.And luckily for the broader enthusiast comminity, the partnership is not stopping with the Ferraris; as mentioned, they're working on conversion kits for Lambos and 'Vettes. Yes, some may complain it's not a "true" manual transmission, but you do get a healthy dose of manual transmission engagement while keeping the benefits of a DCT—and it works with your existing ride. It may not replace three pedals, but for many of us, it certainly might be more fun than paddles.You Might Also LikeIf You Can Only Own One Car, Make It One of TheseThese Are the Most Popular Cars by State
