I just installed the Katech short shifter, Lindsay uerathane bushings, and the CAGS eliminator. The V finally shifts like a car, not a Mac truck. Also got my 1-2 shift back. I leased this car I hope I dont get hammered for the short shifter when I return it. I almost want to buy a proper flywheel but it seems like too much work and money for a glorified rental. Any thoughts?

wow what a PITA to install tho... not used to such involved short throw installs. definately worth the trouble, much more precise shifting

Wow old thread.. Yes unless you have tiny ass hands you need to at least drop the exhaust. you may be able to work around the driveshaft.

I didn't need to drop either. It just makes the whole thing more time consuming. If you do drop the DS make sure you mark it with a marker and put it back the right way.
