tight shifter


Hello, I am still new to my 2001 svt cobra but I am noticing that the 5spd shifter is pretty tight. I am starting to get better with it and maybe with a little practice it will get better. Anyone else experience this or have any ideas

Yeah, my MGW was tight when I put it in, but I completely broke it in by now and I love it.

I think if you play with it a bit, after awhile it should start to loosen up.

it could be a after market shifter but it can also be a after market transmission
