I can't think of anything that could cause this. Keep paying attention to it and let me know if it changes anymore.

 

just installed mine tonight, that was alot easier than I expected. Even the great DIY I read made it sound hared than it waactually was.

The shifting is very tight and quick, I noticed that most of the improvment is in the "side to side" movement as opposed to up and down.

 

I'd love for there to be another group buy

 

I don't have any issues like you're describing with mine. The nature of a short shifter is to make it tighter, though, so maybe that's all you're experiencing and overexaggerating a little? It's still a clear/smooth shot into 5th for me.

 

midpipe ?

 

Whoops, typo there, I fixed it. I had just read a midpipe thread, must've still been on my mind.

 

will do

thanks

 

Since the '06 Miata uses the Rx8 platform does it use the Rx8 transmision?
'Cause if it does then I have a new market. Anyone know this?

 

Nope, but I'm sure there would be tons of California Miata owners that would be more than willing to be a test mule if you cut them a deal.

 

Hey Richard I installed the SS this weekend and it is a dream! Feels much more solid than the stock and it is much easier to shift! Good work.

 

I agree 100%. Does anyone have any answers as to why this cost about 3 or 4 times as much as normal short throw shift kits?

 

i'm also down for a group buy. how many more are needed?

 

if you are referring to the MS one, it is much more money almost $400. you may doubt the price when you buy it but once you receive it and install it you will realize you made a great investment. just like the one guy said, you pay to play. but i do think that the price on this is very reasonable.

EDIT: Also this shifter is warrantied for the life of your car as long as you are the original owner.

 

i went by richards shop last week to pick up a short shifter and he was nice enough to even install it for me. its only been a week and i have to say, out of the performence mods ive made so far( intake,exaust,springs) this is my favorite. i dont think any one mod could change the driving experience of the 8 for the better then this shifter. well done

 

I hope the mad inventor used the DIY guide to install it for you. You wouldn't want him let loose on your car without guidance of some sort.......

 

COUNT ME IN TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'd be in for another group buy.

 

me too...

Chance of me buying at full price = 0%

Group buy = 100%

 

I would be in on a group by as well!

 

Count me in as well =)

 

I feel sorry for you.

As for the small issue I was having before, everything seems to be 100% now, and I am enjoying the SS more than ever. Thanks again Richard.

 

I'd be in as well

 

That's enough, let me go see if I have that many.

 

Only have 0 left. I'll have to run some, takes about two weeks.
You guys get it together and I'll produce a batch.

 

ill take one richard just let me know when you're ready. do we buy it with the buy now link on your site? what will the price be?
