I'm in the middle of waxing. Couple more hours and I'll take some pics and upload them. Lol, cars always been redfire

Cant wait for tomorrow... MGW short shifter will be ordered!

In the shifter install, did Bill remove the driveshaft? Or am I going crazy?

For George...

George missed this a while back...

We were talking about 350Z's lastnight and I told him my wife's cousin just bought one and let me test drive it.

Nice to look at, but would get killed against a GT.

I mixed some pics in from when I installed the Coast DS.

To answer your question...
Stock DS: No need to drop for the MGW install
Aftermarket: Yes, it's gotta go.

I never signed up at S197F, it's all the same guys everywhere. I'm active on 3 Forums (TMS, MF and 4.0C) and that's enough. TMS is my favorite, with the language filters in place, it just seems like its more of a mature forum compared to the others out there.

On a lighter note, got 2 funny Mustang pics e-mailed to me..

LOL that 1st pic looks like a vehicle fromt the first Star Wars.

But at any rate, not until spring- being as I haven't driven the car in about 2 weeks.

Oh I forgot your in one of the c rappy weather states.

Doesn't hurt to ask.

You could throw in you'd be checking the clearance for the MGW shifter.

Yeah but I would think I need the cash-in-hand and I don't have it right now perhaps just before the 31st. Either way I'm seriously leaning to that and LCA/UCA's as my next go around for mods.

Then Centerfog grille
Then Tires/Wheels
Then Supercharger
Then.....

It never ends

I may actually be able to order a new shift ****/shaft combo. Its really only between the MGW gripper ****, or the GrabberPony ****(black 5spd white lettering). Opinions?

Maybe the pictures dont do the gripper **** justice. I like it one second then the next second I think it looks cheap and akward looking. But I like MGW's quality and all. Bill/Leo or anyone with the ****. Is it nicer looking in person then the stock ****? I dont really mind the stock ****, I think its nice looking. I just want a whole diff look with the shorter throws. Voice your opinions poeple!

Lookin' good!

I like the Gripper ball. I didn't care for it too much when viewing their website, but after I received it and installed it, it has quickly become my favorite ****.

MGW is now offering 1-piece retro ***** in white or black. link

You can't nail your own coffin.
It looks more like a suicide by pride.

He was confronted about the spamming he's doing. All the ADs in all the wrong topic sections. And basically he was defending himself with nothing. Just a pointless aurgument. Mods took care of it.
