I spoke with George earliar today and man his customer service is awesome. I told him that the side to side stiffness of the shifter is a little bit to stiff for my wife to drive and he is sending me a less aggressive springs for the shifter. We love the design of the shifter but the stiffness is a little radical fo the everydaydriving especially in heavy traffic, he said he'll might offer differnt spring ratings for the shifter due to the factmost people like the shifter to bestiff for racing purposes or not as stiff for everyday driving and occassional trips to the track. The fact that he is making it work for us to our satisfaction is simply 100% awesome customer service!

I'm bumping this up simply because the photos are so awesome. Hopefully more members will have a chance to see them.
If anyone is thinking about swapping out their stock shifter - they will learn something from these photos [like I did].
Thanks Mike - great job.

Installed the lighter springs, made it 100% more enjoyable and it only took me about 15 minutes to swap them out. The only thing that is still worrying me is that the shifter sit's more to the left in the transmission tunnel, I know the transmission tunnel isn't exactly straight in these cars but all the other shifters Ive had where perfectly centered in the tunnel. The wife can drive it so I quess my goal was accomplished[8D]If I set the black adjusting block anything other than straight the shifter seems to shift at a angle instead of staight up and down shifts. Thats my only compaint as of now. I just need to get used to it, my Steeda shifter felt completely differnt and the gear locations are more to the right, as the MGW shifter gears selections are closer to the driver side of the car, at least in my ride. To totally opposite creatures[&:]
