IRP for a Daily?
Looking to upgrade my shifter. Could go with some MTEC springs or something and a new knob but also kinda want something different - something a little less common. And the feeling of the IRP just hits different.
Just curious on your guys’ opinions … my car is a daily and I don’t know if the additional road noise, rattle, and heat that come with the shifter is worth it. I don’t track the car either - just looking for some extra daily fun. I live in Toronto, if anyone is familiar with the weather here if that plays a part in your opinions. Also running a Tomei UEL + Greddy EVO GT catback .. not sure if that would drown out some noise and rattles. Curious to hear what you guys think! |

You have an EvoGT and you're worried about noise lol. I had a Cart boy short shifter. I loved it. I imagine IRP is very similar

Mtech Shift springs ( I have the Cusco ones )
Weighted Shift knob Clutch Spring ( I have Cusco one ) TRD/STI Gearbox mount, I have the whole TRD/STI engine/gearbox mounts. ( You could add the insert only ) Really happy with this daily set up. No added noise or vibration. Edit: Mtech Clutch spring* Last edited by Thefalls; 10-06-2021 at 12:51 PM. |

LOL even with the exhaust, all I can hear is rear brake light deck rattling. I would assume metal pieces rattling right next to me would be even more annoying LOL

I have this setup too with an added poly shifter bushing. I absolutely love it. The Trans insert bushing will add nvh, the STI/TRD trans mount will not. Add STI Engine Mounts and diff Support Outrigger Inserts for best results.
