Strong vibrations at 7k+ rpm felt from my shifter...
car: BONE STOCK 1999 Civic Si. @ 95K miles.
Installed a new set of poly shift bushings (susp techniques) and ever since, my shifter has a TERRIBLE vibration coming from it since the swap. i am very mechanical. this makes no sense to me. i assume maybe old mounts throughout the motor and when i get high rpms, the vibrations are just magnified more from the stiffer less forgiving shift linkage bushings?

is it hard to replace the shift bushings? i think i might have to on mine. anyone have how-to? or maybe make one.

chances are it's motor/tranny mounts. being that the shifter bushing are harder, the are more vulnerable to vibrations.
