Default Which shifter bushings?

What options do I have? I see many people use ES because it is more affordable. What about other brands like Neuspeed? It is also very affordable.

I believe that Neuspeed or ES would be the best choice. No need to spend a bunch of money on Mugen pieces when you probably can't even tell the difference. Hope this helps. Summit Racing has good prices on these.

ENS-16-1101R is that the right part number for the ES bushings? They're only 10 bucks! I'm gonna have to pick up a set.

Ill prob get flamed for this but Im sure it would be hard to find crappy polyurethane bushings. I just ordered my skunk2 short shifter and generic poly shifter bushing from www.landspeedracing.com.

I got the ES and I don't like them that much...my shifter vibrates/rattles like a **** now, even after I rechecked and retorqued everything. Of course, this *might* be due to the fact that I don't have carpet in the car, or a center console and shift boot... I ordered the Mugen kit now and it should be here early next week, so if it feels any different I will let you know.

I've got the Prothane kit, but they're all pretty much the same I believe.

you can't go wrong with ES I believe, I am using them and they feel good. Shifter seems to rattle a bit only at high rpm WOT , but who cares when you are pushing that hard. I initially bought the B&M metal bushings and when I got home opened it up it said not to use the rear bushing if it is for a street driven car as it will rattle excessively, only use it for race applications wtf ? so I took it back and got the ES ones instead, I was glad I did it, the ES ones were like 1/10th the price of B&M's.
