Darren, quit spanking it to Waldo pictures and go take a video driving your car! I need to see this damn thing in action, especially high rev 2-3 shifts please.

Found that mofo in about 2 seconds.

LOL. Spotted him in about that time "What? This was supposed to be hard?"

Bushings came in...now to install

 

[Johnf78]

Interesting. Do you get any lockout issues now?

 

[ford20]

Are those metal bushings?

 

[SNKPWR]

Yeah they're stainless. I don't have any large issues now stock but I also don't bang the shit out of it BECAUSE I have the stock shifter

I will be interested to hear the effect these bushings have on NVH if any.

My face when Darren said he drove his car...

This thread is so full of win.

I drove the car yesterday for about 100 miles, first time in a week. I'm so disappointed in the MT-82 that I really don't enjoy driving the car. When I swap shifters I'm also going to swap fluid and hopefully reduce the clunking.

I put in the BG Syncro Shift ll when I swapped in the MGW. Shifts great except the few days it gets below 50 degrees.

How much did those set you back? Don't see them on the web page.

I emailed MGW yesterday, they expect to have the bushings online sometime next week. I think pricing was $25 out the door.

I am wondering the same thing as well. Darren, any driving impressions yet besides sitting in your garage and shifting?

 

[BEAST]

You guys are brutal.

 

[Wicked GT]

Darren, there is no rain, snow, sleet, menacing neighborhood cats or anything else in your forecast... Please go drive your car and tell me about this shifter under REAL WORLD use...

If you watch I believe the race spec video George talks about the bushings at the trans end not being nearly as critical with regard to nvh as at the shifter end.

They were $25 shipped
