do a search. this topic has been covered many times.

skunk2 shifter, great feel, great throw, great angle.

skunk2 knob, kinda small, just like ITR, heavy feel, making for solid shifting.

poly bushings, probably the most valuble 10-15 bucks you'll spend on your car since they make a world of a difference in shifting feel. i've felt a skunk2 shifter and knob with and without the polyurethane bushings and its huge difference in solid feel.

do it, you will love the way it feels, the ease of the short throw is great.

installed skunk2 shifter, knob, and urethane bushings. great feel. been out all morning playing around wit it. so much better then stock shifter. i picked bushings up for 10 bucks at a performance store, but i hear places like autozone carry them.
