you dont NEED the bushings but they would be nice. you will only need the 60-80$ for the shortshifter and it will work alone.

Exactly.

Worth the extra money but doesnt have be done all at once. I bought the Comptech short shifter and a few months later i got the cable bushings and noticed a difference after installing them. Short shifter + bushings + new Honda MTF =

Don't get me wrong, i believe you guys, but what do the blushings help with? What i'm saying is, what's so good about them and aren't they expensive by themselves?

the alum bushings gets rid of any play/flex from the factory rubber ones. just get them with the SS you will not regret it. it takes all of 2 min to install them.

explain what blushings ARE, and what SS stands for?

Much appreciated
