about that .. most of the guys are in Sydney, so it would seem only fair to get the lot sent to someone in Sydney (thinking Bennoz if he doesn't mind)

Postage up to QLD / NT might be a little more though, but we have 10 people now, so its gotta be worth it...

Just a suggestion... Now that we have 10, would it be possible to bring this forward at all? I'm pretty keen right now.

If not, that's cool :)

Hey just a quick question with these shifters will you need a lot more effort to shift cause over the last few days ive found the original shifter really easy to use with little effort and i dont mind the long stroke,i just dont want to get this and install it only to find out that it takes a lot of effort or its hard to put in the right gear lol.

i will let someone who has installed it in an FTO answer that. .

my experience has only been with other cars & the stock FTO shifter is a massive pain in the ass compared to those .. in short - short shift = not throwing as far = faster, easier shifts .. but as bens said the mechanism is the same & if you change gears smoothly now, there shouldn't be a difference with the new kit as to how smoothly it shifts .. (correct me if i'm wrong)

it does take a bit more effort but i got used to that, and now i see it as a more firmer feel, and tight, in a way that you feel the "H" pattern more, like theres less room for hitting that awkward bit in between gears like that bit between 1st & 3rd since i just push the shifter from 2nd to 3rd in one motion...
