Few thought on the short shiferr. This is not specific to NST because I think they have a good quality product.
A couple of observations from this weekends track event and the short shiftier.
1. Get a heavier knob...I used the stock Nismo knob but, even the one NST sent which is about the same weight needs more heft to it. I think a heavy knob will make the shifting a little smoother.
2. I find it harder to find a 5th to 6th or 5th to 4th shift now. It is different so maybe that plays into it some. Just didn't feel as positive as the stock shifter...I found myself on more than one occasion searching for the the shift gate like it almost hangs right on the edge of either 4th or 6th gear.
3. Shifts are definitely shorter.
4. Would I do it again? Not sure I think I will get a chunk of SS and see if I can make a suitable knob with some heft to it and see what that feels like.
