Clean Shifter ****!! Looks like a short shifter or could be the thread of the **** is at the very top.

Thanks! I love it and it comes with the black plastic ring at the bottom to make it a clean fit for the 350. The quality is fantastic and I'm comparison to other *****, the price isn't awful at $110 bucks.
People say oh it's just a piece of metal blah blah but the truth is, it's something that I use and feel every time I'm in the car and it's not just aesthetic. A weighted **** really transforms the shifting feel.

Thanks! I just looked at your thread from 2013 with all the stuff you had then! My lord I'm jealous. That car is gorgeous. Do you still have it and if so, what's done to it now?

Shift **** is the first thing I have looked for in both my cars (and continue to look for with the Z)

I actually took my 4" extender to the strip and missed the HELL out of second which is usually an easy pull for me. Luckily for me I packed the Tommy Kaira in the passenger side netting and swapped it out between passes. I'm hoping to take the Z to a road course this weekend and want to try it out there so it will be less of a reach whereas drag is just plowing through the gears. I am pretty terrible at launching, so the best I did was 13.995. This was my second time at the strip so I think I did decent.

Here's a picture of the extender and ****. (you can't see it very well in the picture but I have leather shift boot/ebrake boot with red stitching-hence the red ball... oh, and red wheels )

Congrats on the new Z. I just purchased my first 350Z on Monday. It's an 05 Touring and I have to agree the balance and feel of the car is amazing. They truly made this car a great machine. I cant wait to do some mods and make it even better. Again, congrats and hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.
