It's a quality part. I really like mine and have had zero problems with it.

I paid $75 for mine in a group buy about 4 years ago. It is a good piece and I have been happy with it. I even get comments from my friends about how nice the throw is.

I have the SMC version - same thing though, I would say go for it. Very good mod, straight forward to install, excellent bang-for-your-buck mod, and you'll find the throws being much much shorter. No more horse cock of a shifter!!!
P.S. also do the ES transmission bushing to get even better shifts, worth the price too.:D

it's a quality piece. go ahead and get it. also, you'd wanna get a 15 shifter bushing with it also. it will make your tranny feel like a million bucks......well maybe not a million. :D go for it!!!! get it!!!
how much are these bushings you guys speak of ?

I think it's like $10 and you can get it from Courtesy.

Yeah, I've had the PS shifter for about 2 mo's, and it is a huge improvement over the stock shifter. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
While we are taking about this shifter... Has anyone's got the same thread pattern as the stock shifter? Because mine don't. I custom made a SS couterbalanced shift knob, and threaded it to fit the stock shifter, but had to redo it for the PS. Curious...

Just ordered the PS SS and bushing. Will the stock knob work on the shifter? What about the leathershifetr boot?

Yep, the stock knob will screw on and the shifter boot fits right over the new shifter. No worries.
