That is so bad ***! I want one!!!

Looks like the part that bolts to the trans is 500 and the shifter is 500. I wonder if the bump shifter is also electronic but instead of paddles it uses the stick? I'd rather have the shifter personally but paddles in my caddy would be cool too.

i think it might be electronically controlled and i would like to put this on a t56 and if possible put the t56 in a 90s Subaru impreza awd for rally-cross

Not much room for an auto is a 1 gen V and I like the sequential gear box idea.

Wonder if you would still need to use the clutch or not?

Yeah you have to have the clutch because its not an actual dog box. You are just shifting a manual transmission with electric motors and cables. You still need the clutch which would take some getting used to. Getting the shift timing down and when you can release the clutch would take some getting used to as well because you have no mechanical feel of the trans anymore.
