So what's best? Pull the fuse? Get a module? Cut the black... no, I mean the red... no, the orange wire?

I honestly think the fuse the best solution hands down (with the harness being virtually equal except that it costs $$). Thanks to Mr. Alcheng, we know that the fuse isn't there in later model Z without a SLU. This tells me there was nothing else on that circuit, and you are perfectly safe removing the fuse without affecting anything else

Our credit union has an incredible bill pay system (it's a small fee or minimum balance in checking). Each bill is automatic once you set it up to be. If you have a dispute, you just bring it to their attention and they'll deposit the disputed amount back into your account (whether it is the entire bill or just a portion) and then go to bat for you with whatever company. It is awesome!!

I want the RJM clutch pedal but probably not anytime soon, so maybe

I've never swapped mine. I have no problems driving the Z smooth - it is not difficult in traffic (especially with SRM on). My buddy's cobra had a linear clutch that would give your left leg an incredible workout in traffic. Is there a significant reason to swap springs?

Absolutely, but the other point is that if that happens you blame the driver, not the short throw shifter

200 pages in two days on max posts per page is truly a task. Now I'm gonna go kill some demons (Diablo 3)

if one's just shifting normally (just to enjoy the shorter throw) it makes no difference in the wear.
for me, i just buy a shorter weighted knob to shorten the stroke. not the same as a real short throw, but it's still shorter throw. |
I like a short throw in general... I already drive the Z pretty hard for a DD. The STS won't change when or how hard, but it will make it more enjoyable when I do push her
