One issue that I did run into - the rubber dust boot that covers the linkage underneath the car will not remain in place, as it is originally held up by the shifter bracket/brace that is removed when the Coolerworx unit is installed.

I started feeling vibration in 2nd gear but it eventually smoothed out as I crawled to a stop. This was from the dust boot dangling freely and dragging itself against the driveshaft.

@NorthStyle - Not sure if you ran into this issue as well. But I looked at your photos and it looks like you re-installed the linkage but chose to not install the dust boot cover?

Okay so just ran to home depot and bought both m6 10x25mm bolts and m6 10x20 mm bolts

Which is better to run instead of the oem for the shifter plate?

Just wondering, is anyone still experiencing rattling with this shifter? Has anyone been able to remedy the rattling?

Yes. The rattling is horrible. 3rd and 4th gear after 3k rpm, the reverse lockout internal cable is rattling/vibrating the hell out of its external. I contacted coolerworx twice and received no response. The rattle legitimately makes the Z undriveable in 3rd and 4th gear; the sound is beyond distracting and into the realm of "drives you batsh*t."

I'm pulling this trash shifter out and installing something that doesn't make me want to tear my ears off. It's a damn shame bc aside from the rattle the shifter is great.

I'm pretty sure mine does it every now and then... but after having it so long I either subconsciously tune it out or my music drowns it out.

Think you would take a used condom if you thought it didn't have any holes in it.

That's not really a good comparison. More like borrowing someone's cooler and then your lunch leaks all in it. Why do I care as long as I can still eat my lunch? Not my cooler.
