O. M. G. That's so fucking funny.

I guess what they say is true. Once you get older, you start living in the past more and more.

LOL, no surprise that you take it from racing to a personal stab. I understand though, I'd be embarrassed too. You should just sell it anyways and stick to your bench racing. Hahaha.

Who took it as a personal stab? You know that I would've wigged out and gone ape shit if I took it that way. We both know this. :)

Also, I haven't bench raced in a couple of months. My BRA meetings have really been helping with that area.

I can tell you're bored. You actually took the time to follow me through a thread this time.

What are you studying? Your AARP benefits?

I just ordered an MGW shifter. Was told it is a 2 week wait right now. I'll let you know after i install it.

Cool. I'm interested in your install experience and performance after.

SQL, HTML, JavaScript. Boring and very tedious.

It's worth every penny. Makes the car feel more solid and will give you more confidence driving it.

Like everyone said it's worth it no more 3rd gear lockout. I did the install a few weeks ago no big deal watch the install video from MGW.

I'm going to order an MGW as well. I'm not an engineer and the most i've ever done to a car is change the oil. That being said I can follow instructions well and i'm fairly patient. Can this be done with very little technical experience and a ramp? or should I take it to a shop to have it installed?

I watched the video and it looks straightforward.

I did it with ramps and it sucked. Would have been a breeze with a lift though.

The MGW is a solid piece and will greatly help. Part of the problem with the MT-82 is that WOT the drivetrain geometry changes and moves around getting on and off the throttle. That's why the bushing changes seem to help so much as well.
