Trd quickshifter=amazing!

Just installed today. No rattles or noise and a massively improved feel. Throws are shorter then my friends 997 gt3. It's that good.... Could not recommend it more!!

I was actually gone do the springs next... But it's so firm now, not sure if I should?? I think I'm gonna wait and see how the shifter loosens up over the next few weeks then decide

Definitely let us know if you do it. I wanna install them but having a TRD piece in the transmission is much more comforting for warranty purposes.

It's the trd USA part. I got it for 150 shipped of eBay. Same height etc... Just drastically reduced throws. It's all installed from underneath the car, nothing topside is changed. Not sure if it works with kart boy

I thought about the japan one but it's far more money plus the usual crazy amount of time it takes to get parts from japan... I'm sure it's good, but not sure how much better it could be than the USA kit..Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1393180233.558787.jpg

It's only a couple of pieces but I had to take my car in for its 7500 mile check up anyways... It looks very doable but I had the dealer throw it on. It ran me 190 for the install. It was the first one they have done so I'm sure the price can vary a bit...
