Replace the pistol grip shift **** with a round one.
Replace the nylon shifter bottom with the bronze from Mazdatrix. Not just because it will fail but it shifts better.

After about a month of use how are you liking it? I’m up in the air on rebuilding stock or just going with the BR short shifter.
They are somewhat local to me (just a couple hours north) and I just picked up their pulley kit.
I know in the long run it comes down to preference but wanted to see if you’re still enjoying it.

Funny you should ask. No kidding the day you asked this, I already had a new brass busing on order for stock shifter I took out.
@Sgtblue I swapped them back this weekend, and ummmmmm, the OE shifter just "works" better in this car. New busing tightened up a lot and silky smooth with virtually no effort. Other car (high HP V8 car), short throw has been in for 3 years and love it, but for this ride, a good condition OE is the way. I love this car

Awesome. Thank you for the feedback. I won’t waste my time and I’ll just order a rebuild kit
It really feels effortless.

Great discussion! I had the B&M and did not like how notchy the feel was. I have a C's right now which is better but I am considering going back to stock with the bronze bushing based on feedback here. I will let the thread know if I try it this summer.
