Auto shift **** switch to GTR

So, I can't stand how big the shifter is in my 04 g coupe so Id like to put a GTR shift **** on it to lower it down and make it look a lithe more sleek, Has anyone down this, and do you think it would be possible and maybe easy???

I know both ***** have a retainer pin that hold them in but Id really like to shorten it

Thanks

Ok, sounds doable. Just gotta cough up the cash for the GTR shift ****.... not cheap, but it looks really nice and clean.

yea, my car is an auto as well. I really wanted the GTR shift **** mainly because its a smaller ****, looks really good and I would like it to sit lower.

I hate to say what my i feel like my shift looks like right now lol

Ive gotta find a GTR **** that is affordable now!! man these things get expensive. The black edition is 750..... yea, not gonna do that lol

I used one of these on my coupe. To make it a little shorter, I cut the little plastic on the lever. Don't cut it too short, or the **** can't depress all the way to activate it.

The forum censors the word "****"? What's next?

Edit: That's funny. When I wasn't logged in, the word "****" showed as **** in every post. Once I logged in, I could experience the full naughtiness of the word.
