What an honor, especially as your first post! lol

haha this car is making me want to mod the crap out of my monterey blue, I have been talking to greg over at gtmotoring about getting a few parts soon, I will start a journal after that and try to compete, however it is probably a losing battle.

awesome car man.

Currently, its a short shifter, shift knob, and oil cooler. I have a track day coming up sometime.
After that, definitely need some wheels

sickk car and pictures, hah

Boost_lee · 05-03-2011, 01:35 AM

thanks guys

Newest install: Rogue Engineering Short Shifter with BLOX 490 Limited shift knob in Electric Blue

difference in shifter height and throw when lined up by the pivot point:

Rogue Eng shifter require you to install the factory plastic pivot shift cup and lower bushing. Both removed with the help of a vise, hammer and screw driver.

greased and installed

and finally with the knob

Haven't driven it yet, but the throw doesn't seem extremely shorter. The 'sloppy' feel is gone and throws feel precise and click into place. With the weight of the knob, the throw is still easy. The height is much better than the stock shifter+the blox knob; matches up with the center arm rest well.

Hard to see in the pics, but I also did the DIY stitch coloring with a medium blue. Results were great, very subtle change, and hard to tell in direct light/flash. In the daylight it looks awesome.

Got a few Motordyne parts pending
