theres only 1 way them things can go in right...
im very mechanically inclined. im sure if i can do a clutch in my car i can handle shifter bushings....

they didnt even change the feel that much when i did have them in. i felt like i wasted my money. the shifter BASE bushings are what makes the most difference, not the cable ends

 

Well I posted something about this in the AMS thread asking them to please make some. One of the guys that works there responded and said he will take a look at another 6 speed today or tomorrow.

That would be really nice to get a shifter base bushing kit from them, I would buy it in a heart beat.

I would also love to have a shoft shifter for the 6 speed. That plus the base bushings would be awesome!

 

i actually bought the whole Works Shfiter busihing kit (cable bushings and console bushings)
installed the cable bushings first, a WORLD of difference.. much crispier
2 days later, installed the console ones... didnt feel anything differnet than when i had the stock ones there (the console ones i am talking about)

 

The base bushings make a perceptible difference but it's far from dramatic (definitely not rifle bolt). I've had no issues with my under hood bushings. Greased them liberally and they were (and still are) good to go (PITA to install though). Very noticeable difference in feel and engagement (these give the rifle bolt feel). I have no interest in a ss for the 6 speed.

 

What under hood bushings are you using?

 

I imagine that a difference in base bushings is more noticeable if your cable bushings are still stock.

 

Buschur.

 

Using Buschur's UH Bushings on my IX MR for the last year 1/2!! They made a difference in my world.. am looking into Base Bushings as well.. so works makes some huh..?? Any Works results out there.. so far there the only ones I know that make Base Bushing for a 6spd.

 

i installed kartboy under hood bushings and make a HUGE diffrence.firmed everything up.then installed works base bushings and made a bit diffrence.

 

Just ordered some Buschur underhood bushings. Depending on how those feel I may or may not get a short shifter.

So these make a big difference eh? Do they take the play out of the shifter? I want the shifter to have as little play as possible.

 

Where'd you plan on getting a short shifter? To my knowledge only Works does it. In-house only and they are located in CA.

::Edit:: Get the base bushings and do them together.

 

Guys, the stock bushings in the 5 speed and 6 speed shifters are the exact same part #. Any set of shifte base bushings that fit a 5 speed should fit a 6 speed no problem at all.

 

Because I know how works does their in house short shifter on the MR.

 

You going to the White Marsh meet?

 

Si senior although I doubt I will have it done by then.
