Thanks for all the info guys it looks like I might be purchasing one. Now
what I want to know about is the feel!!! Now Micum (hasn't tried it but) said
it would be more notchy than stock! So I want to hear from Jay and Jason on
this. Do you agree with that statement? I BROKE BOTH of my WRISTS in '98 so
I want to know what I'm getting myself into. So are gear changes a lot
quicker, smoother, more notchy, and done with more or less effort that the
stock shifter??? I already know you guys like it but I want to know why do
you like it?

I believe that the STI short shifter actually makes the shifts
more "notchy". I haven't tried one, so this is hearsay, bu I
understand its developed w/ rally in mind, and rally shifters tend to
have a rather strongly gated and notchy feel. If you are looking for
a smooth shifter, something more track orientated, go for the syms.
Its available at
www.spomotorsports.com I assume that if the STI
fits, it will to, as it is also a complete linkage assembly.
