I just picked up a 2013 fr-s with 56k miles on it. from what I can see the only things done to it are a spec-D catback, Grimm speed strut tower brace, and a K&N drop in, but I haven't gotten a chance to study too deep into it to see if there are some other hidden things the PO did to the car.

The issue I have been having is that there is an obnoxious amount of slack in the shifter, while in third and fourth there is about 4 inches of play. It is not so bad in 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th but it is still pretty loose. There is also some notchiness specifically in 5th and 6th.

I am coming from driving a wrangler for the past two years so I know some of it can be attributed to me just getting the feel for a car with a shorter shift pattern, but it does seem a bit excessive.

I was just wondering if anyone could share their experience on the level of wear they had at around that mileage and if it's normal. I plan on doing the Perrin bushing install, but I am worried that there may be a deeper problem.

Thanks in advance for any advice!
