Kartboy Short Shifter + Top Cup = $150

8pc Stiff Shifter Bushings Kit Metal = $30

2pc Under-hood Stiff Bushings Kit = $33

Heavy MOMO Blk Sphere Knob = $85

3qts Redline MT-90 = $30

Banging through shifts with ultra slick precision, and dead on confidence = PRICELESS

 

You should also try the SS clutch line and remove the clutch restrictor to get a much better clutch feel.

BTW how do those shifter bushings feel?

 

I have the Lancershop aluminum shifter bushings paired up with a B&M short throw and shifter knob along with the ss clutch line but am using BG Synchroshift, have heard that the Mt90 from redline isn't good, good luck to you though. Can't wait to get the Under hood bushing kit and some kartboy exhaust hangers.

 

nice setup
we should have our shifterbushings out in the next few weeks.

i HIGHLY recomend the NEO tranny oil
the RHD is what i used in the RS-T dogbox. the only thing that would last over 1K miles!

MT 90 helped my tranny out alot .... Keep up the awesome products Tom

 

NEO Tranny oil. Tom...do you have a preferred vendor of that in mind?

Reignman...the SS Clutch line was the first thing I did mate

 

Hehe yeah I guess I should have seen that in your signiture.

 

Beautiful man, glad to hear it!

How do you like the Kartboy? Is it better than the Perrin? I plan to get the Perrin and cut whatever I have to cut from the car so I can get 50% shorter throws.

But how do all your improvements feel? Do they feel as good and as short as the S2000 or Acura RSX type-S? Because I test drove these cars once a long time ago, and they both have the same gearbox. And they shift increadible! Too bad that the engine has no torque and and okay horsepower, and incredibly inflated price. They were nice *** cars if the prices were ALOT cheaper, because the EVO kills them on everything (horsepower, stopping, handling).

later,

Um......no, they don't have the same gear box. Not even close.

 

I don't wanna do a short shifter, so would you recommend at least all 10pc bushings? Woud just the 2 underhood do the trick? Also, do you think this will jack w/the warranty if they find those in there?

 

Overall I think the underhood bushings are the most important. You wont (or shouldnt) run into any warranty issues...the dealer tech wont even notice what you have done.

 

The BG was the **** for DSM trannies, its made it was to smoothing down a lot of EVO trannies now too!!! BG is the ****.

 

I love the Kartboy SS and bushings in our WRX, also have the NEO RHD in tranny and rear diff and it's awesome (although pricey). There is also the lower version of NEO to save some dough, but I would splurge. I got my NEO from Baker's Precision (http://www.bakerprecision.com/)

I have NEO RHD in my transfer case and the rear diff of my EVO, but I have Redline MT-90 in the transaxle since it specifies a GL-4 fluid (NEO RHD is GL-5). Was there any definitive answer on whether a GL-5 fluid was harmful for the synchros or anything?

Take care,

The local Redline dealer says they're stopping carrying MT90 and only going to carry MTL now. They claim their rep said that they're basically the same and can be used interchangably. Does anyone have any opinions on this?

MTL is rated as a 70W80 GL4, MT90 is rated as a 75W90 GL4. The service manual calls for either 75W85 or 75W90 GL4 fluid for our trannies.

 

Iodine, man that sucks. Although that is a pretty close weight, I would try it out. Not going to break anything using 70w80 over 75w85 I think.

Berkel...got any pictures of your Enkei RS5's on the car?
