Smoother or easier? I always had an issue try to match up the revs to be just right. The throttle lag is killing me; it's always just a "tiny" bit off because it lags so much. Have you found this to help?

In my old car with the SSK, it was easy, but at the same time it had a throttle linkage, so that was a given.

i guess easier is a better word. it's still a finesse job to do it just right. but the throws are much shorter so my timing is more precise.

Nice shift knob. Nice picture.

You were always official.

I've never given any SSK a chance..

The current throw seems to match the distance my clutch travels before it engages... so the ssk would be done in vain w/o doing a upgraded clutch as well. Anyone else think the same?

That's one thing I definitely need, a new shift knob. Mine is getting tired, hopefully a black Friday special somewhere?

Additionally....Kyle is selling his "lit" knob.

I'm pretty sure most places have it for around $50-60 right now

disagree. shift distance, accuracy, and feel have improved dramatically with the ssk and stock clutch. i feel like i'm half a second quicker to 60 because of it.
