Installed Cosmo Short Shifter
#1
so my buddy Terri came over with his zx3....a really good buddy with some mechanical good skills. always helps me out...

so we installed Cosmo short throw shifter....what a pain in the ass it was i tell ya...remember my car was made in May 2002 so its got that new design for shifters......basicly took us somewhere around 1.5 hours, when on his car i remember it was only 40 mins to do the whole thing. and he's 2000.

anyways the shifter is pretty good i like it....it cost me $96 US and thats with shipping.....

Carry a small tool kit and the old shifter in your car....the cosmo shifters are known to break. From what I hear, maybe they changed the design.
