Most likely going to talk to them and return it, it's pathetic that no one can design an OEM style short shifter without drawbacks. Hell, they didn't even make the lip on the reverse lockout large enough to hold the shift boot down, keeps popping up and looking sloppy.

Just get the japanese TRD one and call it a day, as oem as possible with zero drawback.....

STi one that ppl mentioned is really nice, I just think it's not short enough......but everything about is was prefect. You really notice the difference when you rev match down shift, downshifting into second is like fukn magnetic... damn stick got sucked into 2nd gear........ but not so much for normal driving.

Knowing Sti had this the day twins came out... you know the thing is designed with the car, but they are just too cheap to put it in.


*I just installed the STi short shifter last week.
