Limitless Engineering has introduced Quickshift, a kit intended to let drivers select gears through a gated shifter while retaining a car’s dual-clutch transmission. The company says it can install in hours without permanent vehicle modifications, but pricing, compatibility and production plans have not been disclosed.
Limitless Engineering has introduced Quickshift, a kit designed to let drivers operate a gated shifter in cars with dual-clutch transmissions, adding driver-selected, rev-matched gear changes without a clutch pedal. The company demonstrated the system in a Ferrari 458 and says installation takes hours and requires no permanent modifications, though it has not announced pricing or a release schedule.
Quickshift is intended to interface with a car’s existing transmission control system. Instead of using paddle shifters, the driver moves a gated lever to select gears. Limitless says the system coordinates those inputs with the dual-clutch gearbox to produce rev-matched shifts. The car keeps its existing transmission; Quickshift does not add a conventional clutch pedal or convert the gearbox into a traditional manual.
The demonstration car shown by the company was a Ferrari 458. Ferris Rezvani, associated with Limitless Engineering, said the system could be adapted to work in any car. That is a stated capability, not a published compatibility list: the company has not identified which models have been evaluated or how much work different installations would require.
Limitless says a typical installation can be completed in a few hours and does not require permanent changes to the vehicle. Those details have not been accompanied in the report by independent installation testing, technical specifications or a breakdown of what is included in a kit. The cost of fitting the hardware into a car’s interior may also vary by model.
A Manual Feel Without a Clutch
Quickshift is aimed at drivers who want more direct control over gear selection in cars that are sold with paddle-operated dual-clutch transmissions. Its appeal is interaction and tactile feedback, rather than a claim that it makes a car faster. Dual-clutch gearboxes can shift rapidly, while a gated lever gives the driver a physical way to choose gears.
The distinction matters: this is not a three-pedal conversion. Drivers would not operate a clutch, and the gearbox remains dual-clutch. The kit’s practical value will depend on price, reliability and vehicle-specific integration, none of which is detailed in the available report. Without those details, it is difficult to judge whether Quickshift is a broadly usable retrofit or a specialized commission for particular cars.
Why Owners Seek a Gated Shifter
Some performance cars are offered only with automated transmissions, including dual-clutch gearboxes operated by paddles. Those systems let drivers request shifts without a clutch pedal, but they do not provide the same physical gear-selection process as a manual shifter. Quickshift is presented as a way to add that tactile element while retaining the existing gearbox.
Limitless Engineering is linked to Ferris Rezvani, whose automotive projects include bespoke commissions. The Drive’s report points to that background as a reason costs could be high, but gives no Quickshift price. Any estimate that the kit would cost more than an older used car is speculation, not a quote from the company.
““Quickshift is not meant to be an old fashioned manual but the modern version of a manual; giving drivers the tactile gated feel to row your own gears without a clutch pedal to slow you down.””
— Ferris Rezvani, quoted in The Drive’s report
Price and Fitment Details Pending
Pricing, availability and production plans have not been reported. Limitless has not published a list of supported cars, detailed specifications, warranty terms or independent test results. Rezvani’s statement that the system can be adapted to any car is broad; it does not establish that every model can be converted at the same cost or with the same installation effort.
It is also unclear how Quickshift behaves in different driving modes, how it handles errors or missed inputs, and whether the no-permanent-modifications claim applies to every vehicle installation. The company’s installation and performance claims remain company statements in the material provided.
Awaiting Price and Compatibility
The next useful details from Limitless Engineering would be a price range, ordering information and supported-model list, along with technical documentation explaining how the system connects to each car’s controls. Independent testing and installation reports would help establish how it performs beyond the Ferrari 458 demonstration and whether the stated installation time applies across different vehicles.
Until those details are available, owners cannot assess the total cost or confirm whether their car is a practical candidate. The report does not give a date for broader demonstrations or customer deliveries.
Key Questions
What does the Quickshift kit do?
It adds a gated shifter intended to let drivers select gears in a car with a dual-clutch transmission. Limitless says the system coordinates shifts through the car’s existing transmission controls.
Does Quickshift add a clutch pedal?
No clutch pedal is described. The car retains its dual-clutch gearbox; the kit changes how the driver selects gears rather than turning it into a conventional three-pedal manual.
Which cars can use the system?
The company demonstrated Quickshift in a Ferrari 458. Ferris Rezvani said it could be adapted to any car, but no supported-model list has been published.
How much does Quickshift cost?
No price has been announced in the report. The cost of installation and interior integration may vary by vehicle, but a specific estimate is not available.
How long does installation take?
Limitless says installation takes a few hours and requires no permanent modifications. The report does not provide independent confirmation or clarify whether that estimate applies to every vehicle.
