Default Modified Ballcock shank washer on Nismo GT ****

Everyone knows how ugly the Nismo GT **** looks without a finisher...

Just posted a DIY on how I shaped the infamous Ballcock Shank Washer. Really easy.

Oh, BTW, if anyone wants the one I just made for this DIY, shoot me a PM.

Ballco.... *shiver* Nope, I don't like it. Ballc...

If you notice in the DIY, I just refer to it as "Washer" after 1 reference.

That solution is still not exactly pretty imo Here's mine, as Nismo intended !!!!

if you fit the washer below the shift boot you get this.........



...but then I had a shift boot made up......

It looks way better with the finisher than with your setup IMO
