So I installed a set of aluminum shifter bushings for the MR2. The fit perfectly onto my shifter base.
If you have the time, make sure to take out most of the plastics in the middle console. If you don't, get ready to get cuts like I did. The shifter is rock solid now, I'm even afraid I might break the shift rod haha, but it's so nice. Feels more connected. I'm still missing the second shifter cable bushing, and I can already feel a difference in shift feel. A must have for a couple of bucks and half an hour of your time. Here's a pic of the old ones. Couldn't snap a pic of the new ones installed cause they're barely visible once installed.

QUOTE (SwissFerdi @ Nov 19, 2012 - 11:33 PM)  Are the new ones brass, soft metal type? Aluminum. QUOTE (UVZ164 @ Nov 20, 2012 - 3:17 AM) Are they the speed source ones? If so you can select the option for the 6gc. http://speed-source.net/?wpsc-product=toyo...n-base-bushings Yes the speedsource ones. Most FWD Toyotas and the MR2 and MR-S use the same bushings. QUOTE (Tigawoods @ Nov 20, 2012 - 8:30 AM) monkeywrench racing has them as well. Id buy them there, Speed Source is very lazy with shipping and has no communication line twosrus shipped extremely fast, I'm not complaining. -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold
