Street Customs short shifter is solid

I just got my short shifter from yes dont groan EBAY and it feels so solid and much shorter, this shifter feels like what should have came on the lancer in the first place. hats off to streetcustomsusa.

Just read the EvoM forums. You'll notice who has the buzz.

Right now, 4G93 IMs are all the rage.
A month ago, it was bored fuel rails.
You'll see.

Im actually really starting to doubt mine. I grind 2nd gear (it doesn't shift fully into gear) about 2-3 times a week. I'm thinking it the short shifter. Now I'm looking for a B&M./

Could be the shift linkage bushings. Get some from Kartboy and then see if it still grinds.

I already have the linkage bushings. I love them. But the grinding is still happening.

I'm getting the clutch line that disables the clutch safety from RRM because the same thing is happening to me. It took me some time to figure out it wasn't me. My brother did the same thing in his Acura (went to a 2-step clutch) and it made all the difference. I'm getting a SS and bushings anyways....
