^wow, not many have said that...

How is your engagement?
Does it rattle like its about to fall off?

I have read some horror stories about not being able to shift it into gear...Any issues with speed shifts?

glad to hear that you dont have any. Only reason I stayed away from the whole SS idea was because it was in the Top 100 worst mods list..

^Did they decide on the nismo clone? Adjustable is a good idea.. but I am still hesitant on the whole SS thing..

If I were to buy one, it would be the Rogue Engineering piece.

i actually like the short shifter..... the thrown are much shorter.. + when i just bought the car last year sometimes when ripping it i would try to shift into second gear and it would grind... i have never had that problem yet with the car since i have changed to a short shifter....

i remember i played with some guy's short shifter (can't remember the brand, I think it was B&M), and when it was IN GEAR it had so much play it felt like it was in neutral.

Yay. I was supposed to be done modding every year. But, for 2008.
Shine Auto Nismo V2 Front, JDM sides.
EVO-R Blitz Wing
INGS+1 N-Spec rear (hybrid aero) (Includes JDM Race Queen Air freshener!!)
R26 Project Kics Neo Chrome Lug Nuts
10mm Project Kics spacers rear
5 mm Eibach spacer front (may trade for 10mm?)
2006 Air box

Potentials?
BBK? '06 Bixenons?

Let me know when you're out and about and we can grab a coffee. I'm in and out of my garage right now, working on some ECU programing. Other projects have gone well!

Hey Frank,
The weather is looking good so I should be able to bring the car out to work more often. Maybe I can pop buy sometime after work. I will try and make it happen.
