Has any one tried this out yet? Im trying to find one to buy and im also trying to find what it looks like. Is it just a washer on the linkage or something i dont really understand how it works? Also how much do these run? I emailed Asstion lets see if i get a reply.

Although I drive a Gen1 xB I love this piece on my car. Here is some good shots of the product and where it fits on an xB it moves the pivot point closer in on the shift linkage arm. It feels stiffer or as some described "Notchy" but I have had mine for almost 2 years with no problems.

They are made of 7075-T6 aluminum which, pound per pound, is stronger than steel. I'm located near Disneyland, SoCal. If one of you guys is local and want an STS for free for test fitting, hit me up.

So would it be kind of like slipping into gears without using the clutch when shifting? And what do you mean everyone got used to it? A couple of people just got used to it and now like it? I think im just going to try it out and if i dont like it any body interested in sloppy seconds lol?

I've been wanting to get one of these also. If it turns out you don't like it, I will take it off your hands. I've also done lots of research and found mostly positive reactions to this product.
