honestly other than it being really far forward it's got good feel shifting through the gears

 

totally agree i just wish i had my weighted knob back

 

I think the loose feeling that you are talking about is crappy bushings. When you did your swap, did you put in new bushing for the shift linkage? That gave me a tighter feel. A short shifter didn't really change anything but the throw.


edit- I see that you have the polyeurathane bushings, but where they new?

 

i bought the shift linkage used, not sure how fresh the bushings were. Prolly time to replace them

 

what they said.

 

am i able to just use an ls shifter instead of my si shifter would that make the difference?

 

no it wouldnt

 

why not

 

the shifter unless its aftermarket isnt going to make a difference on play hell even a short shifter wont make much itll help a lil not much its all about the bushings

 

ive seen some shop that put swaps in use a bolt on peoples shifts linkage. which cause a real shitty feel in the shifter. when a spring collar sleeve is what should be in there with a nice tight fit check that out.
