It'll be okay. I drive easy. I think it would be the cheapest alternative right now and no downtime since I have everything needed. It will last 1-2 years imo. 5 speed synchros seem worn...hard to shift into gears at track.

I may just be missing the cables. Its sitting at Sandy's garage, and I think one of our friends needed the cables for his car. Should be cheap online.

Chu, if you do the swap, you're totally going to need a new shift knob.

Just make sure you use the right shift knob. You don't want to mishift into reverse when trying to park.

Very important.

Yeah and if you have a five speed knob you'll be shifting to sixth when trying to get reverse, noob. The knob is about the most important piece in the swap.
