Revo SS question ... yes, another one ... geez

ok, I was wondering if the revo ss kit makes your shifter any tighter. The importance of a tight shifter and a shorter throw is actually equally important to me ... I dunno, it just is. I hate how the stock shifter is so loose. I was also wondering if the DC ss adapter made it any tighter as well?

the adapters and revo should make it more tight/stiff.

I think swapping out the stock rubber bushings for the shifter assembly with aluminium ones will help too during shifts too, especially hard shifts. but er.. I'm biased cuz I'm selling these. so dont listen to me. plus feel is subjective.

I dont like it stiff, so I got rid of my neuspeed adapter. it was okay first because I knew when I was in gear, it was dead solid when it gets in gear... but I duno, I like it butter smooth/loose. its personal preference.

if you take off your center console you'll see four bolts holding the shift base down... right under them are four bushings... but if you were to get kumosport bushings, youd get four for the bottom of the base and four for the top.

www.kumosport.com

their site is a bit slow. but if u wait a bit I think it'll come up.

I also sell something similar to it.... they're in manufacturing process, expecting them in about 3-4 weeks. right now they're in pre-order special stage (lowered price)

$12.50 shipped compare to kumosport's $32 shipped.

even after pre-order, my regular price of $16.50 shipped is way cheaper.

I thought about it and these shouldn't cost so much, so I found an ISO 9001 ceritified company that will do this for me.

They're exactly the same, except there's no color to it (to save cost, I was thinking of getting it anodized dark navy blue, but the price jump doesn't seem worth it. $20 bucks shipped - still cheaper though) plus u wont see these anyway, so why do they need to have color?

I'll suggest ordering 2 weeks from now though, so if anything goes wrong (like I run off with money..) you can get your moeny back via the buyer protections Yahoo Paydirect offers.
