I'm not 100% sure, but weren't there some folks on here that tried to warn you about that?

How long have you been using it....because you will adapt to it over time.

uh, actually Justin wanted it but he is no more. I just don't like how it feels and I prefer to have it stock again. I am perfectly capable of driving it with the short throws, I just don't like it.

I was looking into getting a short throw shifter before I bought the car, but like after a week of driving it I decided against it. I believe you have to take apart part of the center console to uninstall/replace it.

You and me both sir.

Yeah the Z already has a short enough throw, no need for a short shifter.

Lol at least you don't spend you slow days just hitting the refresh button on 5 different forums and your e-mail lol

Last night was great, I am 50% Irish and have a natural accent, but I decided not to talk with it last night since it would be cliche, plus I really get tired of frat guys trying to mimic it lol.

What did everyone do for Saint Patty's?

I'm no good at taking trim off or any of that. I effed up a door panel on my old car taking off the trim to put in new door speakers lol

I do that in the OT section when I'm bored lol I usually just troll though

I'm 100% pure blooded Irish no accent though. My grandparents have a thick one though lol

Me and a few buddies threw a party lastnight. We have been doing it for the last couple years but lastnight was the best by farrrrrr lol
