Default gearshift issues

the gearshift on my manual tranny ek has lost that slickness and "feel" that it once had, it is now wobbly and loose , not very nice.

is suspect that some sort of bushing has given up the ghost ,can someone point me in the right direction as to what needs replacing

Well... your gonna have to crawl under your car and check it out. On the shifter side there is a bushing and two bolts holding the shifter up to the car. On the car side there is one end that attaches to the transmission and the other end has a round bushing on it. I'm guessing that your bushings are worn. If you replace them go with some energy suspension bushings, you should be able to find them for about $18 shipped from a vender on here and when coupled with a short shifter makes a hell of a difference.
