Welcome to the site!

For those who have the shift kits they like them a lot. Shifts are firmed up nicely. Just make sure it's installed correctly.

I still believe the 5/6MT is the ultimate shift kit

A lot of people also recommend the ECUTune Stage 1 upgrade.

I hope I see you around.
Lots of silver ones in this town but if you ever spot me be sure to post.
I don't think I've seen any black ones.

Good luck on your buy. I went all the way to Minneapolis for mine, and now I'm thinking about number "two" a blue 94LSi in Kalispell.

Congratulations on your new ride
The shift kit is worth the money.
A trans cooler is a worthwhile investment.
I hope you enjoy your cross country trip.
We are here for you, if you need us.

The people on this network will help, if you ask.
