meh. orange doesnt do it for me. its basically a limited with a paintjob and a swapped hatch for an sti hatch. not to mention its probably alot more then a limited for it to be called "clubspec" but still cool to know its available like that outside of the us

Just installed my Kartboy short shifter

(sorry for the cell phone pics, was easy and convenient)

Before the install

Kartboy installed

Complete

Was really easy to install. Watched a YouTube video which walked me through the whole process. Took no longer than 15 minutes! Only PITA was the snap ring, even with the tool, still was a mofo. I may need to loosen the bushing bolt a smidge, feels a little tight bug awesome!

My wife kept me company and provided a helping hand with the tools!

Yeah, the console needs a little dusting..

rosedaleny806 · 09-24-2012, 10:44 PM

Good luck with that rear bushing, its a pita! The bushings are worth it though so don't let me discourage you from getting it done.

My shifter setup:
Kartboy SS
Kartboy F/R bushings
Anarchy Motive Knob

chanomatik · 09-25-2012, 03:05 AM

The bushing aren't THAT bad... compared to a 2001 2.5RS.

RockyUVT · 09-25-2012, 03:26 AM

It's only really difficult to start the bolts back in. It's at a really strange angle, especially if your only on ramps/jack stands. I had my whole ssk/bushings done in 2.5hrs and that included going and buying a pair of internal snap ring pliers.

rosedaleny806 · 09-25-2012, 09:30 AM

would having the ssk/bushing affect warranty at all?

I'm sure it could possibly affect tranny warranty if your dealer wanted to be a prick.

Front and rear bushings aren't that bad.
Just be patient, and make sure you have ample room under the car.
