Nice Feel
So, previously I had the ARK Performance STS but recently they opted to discontinue it. Well, as I run a FB group and like to recommend parts based upon what I know I wanted to give this a try in hopes that it was a good quality product, so far I'm not disappointed, I like how it curves in towards the driver makes 4th to 5th way easier than the ARK or OEM one in terms of shortness. Well, hopefully CARiD will allow me to post pics as I did a full write up on this on my FB group Mazda 3 N/A Mods. Really took a leap of faith on this as there is no picture on the site, it does, as stated, come with everything needed: solid shifter bushings and 2 Fidanza decals. Would recommend getting red loctite for the allan head screws. Also, I put this in my 2007 Mazda 3 2.3L N/A, only thing that has been an issue is when reversing will slightly lift up on cover and when going from 4th to 5th occasionally hits inside the cover, should be able to modify a couple things and be good to go. Lastly, first impressions are this thing looks just like the Manzo eBay one but according to a member in my group, the Manzo doesn't have the same aggressive curve towards the driver. Give option to buyer to post pics of their install with the comments like Amazon does.
