nismo short shifter is really nice and in my opinion the best one out there. if you look around there are many places that sell for < than 200.

they do manufacturer for BMW, but they make the best SS made for our car and the 350z. They are sometimes difficult to find b/c they make them in limited runs.

rogue engineering and 350evo are the two sites that sells (or at least use to sell them). I think there's a DIY floating around here somewhere. I think the hardest part is getting the rubber dust boot back in place. Other than that its pretty easy.

Good info here. I've always been curious to know what was the best. I ruined my ITR transmission with an inferior SS.

I also had my RE SS for the past 2 or 3 years and haven't had any problems. Highly recommend it!

From what i've read around here they're the best. Looks as if they're available again direct from Rogue.

I just placed an order for one tonight. I guess i'll find out tomorrow if they have it in stock or not.
