Just got done looking through the anything and everything nismo thread and I just can't find pics of the nismo carbon shift **** (not full carbon just the center is wrapped) I just got mine in today and want to see what it looks like installed...(I can't install it for another week cuz I'm out on buisness) Thanks

2 seconds, you need to improve your search skills

 

The classifieds!!!!! anywho thanks anyone have pics where I don't need lasik surgery to see it. BTW thanks escobar...

 

anxious bump anyone?

 

 

nm, I just noticed that you wanted to see it installed.

 

Thanks yea it's really hard to find pics of it installed so I'm taking like 35 pictures of it in different angles just incase someone is in my predicament...Thanks anyways

 

haha, good idea

 

notice that u have 03, gl taking that off!!!
I tried and it is impossible for 03! i took it to the dealer and they helped me out free of charge, since i bought my car there!! and after three tech and a tool it finally came loose! And my stock actually broke off!! it is just impossible to take off with bare hand!

 

I've been reading up on the DIY and I think I can do it myself. I think the problem you had was they didn't secure the base and some people have reported breaking there linkage doing that because there is sooo much lock tite on there... I'm gonna try and do it myself if not I'll go to the stealership...

 

here is a pic of mine

 

Thanks that's an awesome pic... does it ever get hot? I remember seeing someone with like a red bride wrist band and was looking in to getting something like that incase it's cold/hot.

 

anything that isnt aluminum or titanium will probably get a little warm in the summer.

 

the shift **** never feels hot at all

 

Took em just for you!! Sorry about the quality....
It took less than 5 minutes to put it on... You should try it right now! Make sure to use vice-grip or something to hold on to the shift rod underneath the **** while twisting it off.

 

I'm jealous love the factory nav/in dash setup... looks nuts and thanks for the pics. I should be able to install tomorrow and since I couldn't find a proper write up, I will do one for anyone with questions...You think there would be more video installs and DIY's like the guys on horsepower...

 

So I got in early and was too anxious to wait so I installed it and It was a b****... I heard stories where it's really hard to unscrew to begin with then finally loosened up but this was tight through every single turn.. My hands are killing me but It's done and looks awesome!!! Other than the unscrewing it's a straight forward install and still plan on doing a write up. One question though... there was a little cylindrical thing where the finisher would sit and didn't know if I needed to keep it on there and it seemed like it fit inside the inner part of the finisher so I kept it there and screwed on the new ****.... Went for a drive and it seems like it's rattling!!! Should I unscrew it and remove that cylinder... It's late and can't think of the name!!! looks like the inner part of a ball bearing..

 

bump anyone know if I should remove that clylindrical thing? It's vibrating and annoying... but don't know if its necessary

 

I have this shifter too, bout to install....wish me luck!!

 

Toar my factory up good luck and get a friend it's a lot easier...
