its supposed to be ok, definately better than the ones you can buy off ebay.

you do have to cut up your shifter base though.

i think hes talking about the shift boot, so its not so saggy. i think. i had a aftermarket boot but after i painted i didnt like how the aftermarket boot looked so i resized the OEM w/o cutting, i think i have a pic somewhere...

and dont totally put down ebay short shifters. i got a B&M off ebay and its very nice, fit perfectly, and that sucker is solid too

The Shark Racing SS is actually the RSIDE BASIC shifter, and yes, it sucks balls.

DO NOT get this shifter.I have it and it sucks balls. Besides having to cut the shyt out of the plastic base plate to get her to work, it still had play in it and i had to fab bushings to make it not have 3 miles of play in it.
