a kit for manual transmission equipped cars that will reduce the amount of "throw" there is when shifting. This allows for quicker shifting.

if you guys can pull this off I'll be the first to pre-order and the first to install other than the prototype. now if we could only relocate the shifter to the cup holder area so the taller fella's wouldn't have to reach for it. I swear in some ways this car was built for women. even the 6 mt.

will it be a full short shift kit, meaning the linkage and stick itself will be different, or just some dinky little piece that replaces the attachment in the engine bay like the 3rd gen short shifters?

Joe,

Do you have pricing for the short shifter, I was about to put in an order for the front stb bar, but I am thinking I would get both at the same time. Is the availability so limited that if I hold off, I am going to be loosing out?

there are about 30 front bars left

No pricing for the SS kit yet. it'll be after Christmas likely before it's officially released. but it will be <$125

Spoken like a true enthusiast. However, people who have kids, travel long distances, drive in heavy traffic, or who don't like shifting, would completely disagree with you.
