These TR 6060's and 6070's are built very borderline to the power these cars make when it comes to the synchros. These trans can take abuse and power/rpm up to a point, the synchros will get stiffer and notchier over time, and eventually itll be so stiff you're constantly grandma shifting especially at hi rpm. The best solution is get your trans built by RPM or Tick and your trans will shift butter smooth and with no notch (carbon synchros, bronze shift forks, etc). Also, stop no lift shifting, thats really hard on your synchros.

The 17 year models and up did come with front cameras. I think the center console is worn out quicker with the manual transmission constant shifting. A higher trim level would help with the memory seats and Boise speakers

Interesting. I suspect the arm rest issue is having to lean on your elbow on the armrest. The battery issues sound like a heck of a lot of work to get access. I would connect cables to it and run it up out of the carpet and have it easily accessible to a portable high-capacity battery jumper. I own a C5 corvette and like the C7 but never really decided to buy one. I too worry about my front bumper and the easy fix to that is back it up to the curb. The rear end typically floats over the curb and the benefit is driving out is great because you can see driving forward when you leave than backing up and hoping you can see.

Whiny little B! You said you owned a lot of vette’s right? Half of your issues are all vette’s. How is the console getting worse? Your arm is always there and your etching the surface off duh , my Camaro’s console isn’t perfect either after 74,000 miles , you driving it or showing it? Look at my vette in the garage? 16,000 miles on the car, you don’t need spark plugs anytime soon. I don’t need cameras and HUD, leather, or any other gadgets to drive the sht out of my car , and no it’s not that fast but it’s Dam fun. 14, 1SS 1LE for life. All bolt on’s, cam kit, high volume oil pump, BMR subframe, all poly bushings , ICON Z28 Style side skirts. Looks great white n black, all about the two lane roads, not the go from 70 hellcrap show!

Go with stock shifter if you don't want notice. The list goes on. I call BS on all his gripes. 😂😂

From what I've seen and tried, only the Honda Civic Type R and the Porsche GT products got shifters perfect. I think Corvette shifters tend to be overly notchy because while you are connected to the trans with hard linkages, it's an extender that goes to the back right? Think this might add some friction to the system, kinda like older Porsche 911s that also have a hard link going to the back.
