The MOD Shifter TH8A / RS Improved Feel by 3DRap is a magnetic upgrade for the Thrustmaster TH8A and TH8 RS gear shifter that hardens the shift feel by up to 4 times, with no friction or wear, for sim racers who want a more realistic gear change.
The New-Gen magnetic "Mod Cambio" replaces the contact mechanisms with high-precision magnets: every gear engages with a firm, solid feel, generating no friction and needing no maintenance. During assembly you choose a short throw (Short Shifter) or a long one (Long Shifter).
Key features of the MOD Shifter TH8A / RS
- Contactless magnetic system: firm shifts, with no friction or wear.
- Hardens the shift up to 4 times versus the original mechanism.
- Throw selectable at assembly: Short Shifter or Long Shifter.
- Works in H-pattern; expandable to sequential and handbrake mode.
- Plug & play assembly with no greasing, with an official 3DRap video tutorial.
Options you can add
You can expand the MOD with two extras. The Sequential Mode adds conversion to a sequential shifter and handbrake via the central slider, with a plastic or metal plate to choose from. The additional magnets (+1Kg) add 6 extra magnets for an even firmer feel.
Short or Long Shifter
Short Shifter: a short, direct throw, ideal for competition or aggressive driving.
Long Shifter: a longer, more progressive throw, for a more traditional experience.
