Re: revo short shifter

Grey's kit reduces the amount of side-to-side play in the cable mount point on the shifter and it also stops a rattle that comes from the clip on your main cable where it attaches to the shifter base. Well worth the 7 bucks or whatever he sells them for.

I would also recommend the shifter bushing upgrade. Whether you get capyoda's or the one's I bought (check the DIY in my sig), it makes the Revo 10 times better. I drove with the stockers for about 6 months and could really tell a difference when I swapped them for the aluminum ones.

I know its extra money, but so far (the turbo stuff doesn't count) those three things (SS, fixer kit, and bushings) have been one of the best upgrades I've done to the car.

Re: revo short shifter

those two things make a huge difference. i have a stock rsx shifter in my car with just aluminum bushings, and it's a huge improvement.
