So I went over to Nissan today and finally ordered a shifter bushing since I heard when you buy a new one and install it on your OBX shifter it makes an incredible difference…

Can anyone say the same? It costed me $3.33 with taxes and tommorow Ill have it from the warehouse… Ill give you all the 411 on what I think of it tommorow.

Its in… And definately worth the $3.33 8)  
Quite a lot tighter for just a bushing, I think its excellent…  
A good combo, the OBX shifter and Bushing…  
Highly recommended ![http://forums.son240sx.ca/images/smiles/werd.gif](http://forums.son240sx.ca/images/smiles/werd.gif)

Not a chance I’d spend that, I saw someone post that before, Wanted to know where to get them, but wow, thats ridiculous… Get them custom fabbed. Jantos, You have the tanabe on yours?  
I took my car for a spin tonite, loved the shifter, pretty nice… Any pics of how that Tanabe set attaches?

Theres no way I’d pay that, unless it shifts for you on its own!

yup thats my kit

I have the OBX and the metal bushing, it feels like a B&M.

And it also has a urathane insert that goes into the stock rubber loose flimsy tranny mount and ontop of that it adds weight to the shifter and holds the obx togeather so it dosnt unscrew.

Definatly worth the 100 i paid for it,

Adam did you end up getting the kit?
