I've had an ebay style for a year and a half and its going strong... I don't consider myself a strong shifter (don't really need to shift strongly to get a good fast shift) so I went with an ebay one. I don't have any aftermarket bushings right now, but some Neuspeed bushings should be in the mail within a day or two.
