Well after driving the car about 40 or so miles today, it felt great. The throw is much shorter and provides for very quick shifts. The stock throw wasn't bad but this is noticably shorter and is fast. Most notably during WOT when you don't want to lose any momentum.
Some of the things I had heard from the 350 crowd was that it is noisy, rattles and you lose the reverse 'safety stop' feature (which consists of nothing more than a spring). I can tell you that NONE of the above is true of this shifter in my 370. It doesn't rattle or make any strange noises whatsoever during shifting. Syncro-Rev match is not affected either.
Take note that this is the same shifter available for the '03+ 350Z and Infinity G35. Maybe it's probably a better fit in the 370!
Anyway, I will continue to monitor and report any issues and/or feedback with this unit.
On a scale of 1 -10 =
9
The only reason it doesn't get a straight up 10 is because it does take a little patience to install.
A special thank you to
Kenji Takahashi over at
B&M for handeling the install and allowing me to test the unit for them.
