i agree w/ dent...in my opinion the stock rubber bushings give you a stock feel w/ each shift. this is due to the fact that those bushings absorb some of the kinetic motion you input through the linkage which in turn can give you somewhat of a sloppy throw. now this is where the corpsort bushings come into play...when you replace the stockers...you now have a "direct" connection to the tranny. play is eliminated now because there is no more points of absorption anymore. it will give a very linear, solid, and mechanical shift throw. if you have a strong throw...meaning you bang your gears hard...then you will definitely like all the shifting mods described in this thread
