    "Chinking" sound when changing gears

    Does any one here know how to get that "chinking" sound when you change gears. Like at the start of Fast and the Furious.

    If so where can I get it done?

    Buy a sequential six speed Hollinger gearbox, retail for around $20,000, no hope of breaking it unless your running around 600+kw.
    Straight Lines are only there to connect corners

    So you actually have to replace the gearbox just to get that sound as you change gears??? Well for that price I'll just imagine it every time I change gears then

    I think that is what they call in the industry... a sound effect.

    there's another way, rip out the leather boot of your gear stick and line the outside of the H with metal, assuming the gear lever is metal, away you go!
