Thanks Bradly:D I bought the xmetal Gen V off of him. And I must say it is different as almost like an aquired tatse to something....in others words I likey:burnout: Still getting used to it. I also had the B&M and not much different then stock except better 3rd gear shifts also noise IMO was louder with the B&M(also doesn't B&M make the hurst stuff?), but with the s/c now cant hear it anyway:marchmellow: but I believe it was wifey or maybe turtle (too lazy to go back and check):p but the advise they gave about the little twist and using the palm (perfect) any other way is almost like trying to force it but with the palm and a little bump :burnout: :burnout: I have only had it in since saturday but so far I give it 7.5 out of 10.need about another week to settle 2 issues. Which maybe nothing. But I would recommend it to others. Will also give a review after the track.:D :marchmellow:

Oh P.S. Brad those 4 tiny little washers wtf do they go too:confused: didnt use them anyway:marchmellow:

EDIT: forgot to mention reverse is like butter unlike the stock shifter and the b&m where you have to slap it like a red headed step child:marchmellow: :rock:

My shifter is stock and 3rd/reverse work smoothly after a very thorough clutch fluid bleed. I couldn't be happier!!
 
Glad you like it:rock:

The washers act as shims to adjust the shifter.:dontknow:

If you pull these 4 bolts, that plate comes off and theres 2 springs in there. You can +/- the washers on the springs. I never really messed with it, so I can't tell you exactly how it affects it:eek: . There should be 2 washers on each spring now.

Enjoy:burnout:
