What is the bushing that help the shifter to not move around? Like if you have the car in 1,2,3,4,5 sometime the level is really loose. Do you guys know what i'm taking about. If the car if in first it looks like it in 3rd or it really loose. I want the shifter to be firm i what ever gear i put it in.

 

Not sure about that. I have the 2 mugen shifter bushings but there's still a bit of side to side play in the shifter.

 

yeah i'm trying to eliminate the side to side play or reduce it.

I remember there was a circular piece that went by the trans end and a rectagular 1 that went right underneath by the shifter.

Where would the 3rd one go??

 

he's probley refering to the two sides for the round bushing (for the linkage into the tranny)

 

No, the 3rd one is that rubber boot like one (looks like a balljoint boot) that goes over the ball part of the shifter.

 

The closest you can get to eliminating the play is the E's kit. After that all the play you feel is in the tranny.

Where do you get this?

 

Energy suspension shifter bushings are less than $15 and than theres the B&M solid metal bushings.(no idea on the pricing)

 

This image shows a "CNC machined" product however it still looks urethane, if thats it, thats the one I want!

 

some of the play can be caused from the worn out platic bushing at the ball of the shifter. its inside the rubber boot thing.
also the joint itself may be worned and cause play.
but deff upgrade the shifter bushings and work from there. i would replace the plastic one at the ball of the shifter too while the shifter is down.

Part number ENS-16-1101R (red) or ENS-16-1101G (black)

The round one is a bitch to get in...just warning you. It's not split into 2 pieces, and it's hard urethayne so it doesn't give much. Best way to do it is to make sure it's good and lubed up (the bushing and the metal ring on the linkage), interlock your fingers like you're gonna pray, and push it in with your palms (one on the metal ring and one on the bushing). It works, but it takes a lot of effort.

I noticed a good difference, but there's still a little bit of play. Not too much though...and a lot less than with the gum-like OEM rubber ones.

 

its easier to just stick it in a vise and press it in lol thats if you have one
