I got this one from Lancershop. Couldn't be more happier since it shifts like a hot knife through butter. Feels more precise too. (kinda like a gated shifter from some exotic cars)

the B&M short shifter is nice. I had it in the car for a couple months. the shifter with the bushing kit and greddy knob is the exact setup i have anad it was great. I did go back to the stock shifter. because I dont mind it one bit. If anyone is interested in the shfiter ler me know. great peice imo

did you do all of their bushings or just under the hood ones?

From what I've heard, the underhood ones make the most noticeable difference. No real need for the console ones...

I have a six speed so the only short shifter available is the works one...so I opted for buschur underhood shifter bushing

hands down the most rewarding mod I've done

they make driving so much more enjoyable and the shifter feels tight and no long sloppy

I have an ACT clutch and had some high rpm lock out issues...the bushing completely eliminated that as well

just to update......I installed the brass underhood bushings, went with polyurethane for the shifter case inside the car, and the Works shifter!......install was simple for all, I opted for the Works with the end caps and the oem collar just to make it super simple........the shift feel is night and day difference.
