Ill tell you guys what, Ill upload pics of my car after i get my new body kit. The reason, currently, my car looks like a mess. I removed the ground effects kit, I have a big dent in my passengers side quarter pannel, and my intake has a hole in it. Im not trying to embarress myself, so give me about four/five months. Then ill show some before and after shots.

True shifters right here!

Installed my short shifter, took a while getting it apart, but my throw is real short now. I don't come anywhere near the radio when I shift.

Good ish.

Only problem I am having with the shifter is that during the removal of the old shifter, I broke a locking washer, so if that slips off, and the pin it was holding slips out, Im stuck using only two gears. Example: Last night I was driving home, I was about to shift into 4th gear. The washer sliped out, and I could only use 3 or forth gear. It really sucks cuz i cant find the right size locking washer anywhere.
