I have the B&M too. It's good out of the box, but what I did was cut about an inch off it, and added a really heavy sparco shift knob(ball style). Now we're talking short positive shifts baby https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png:)

my friend had the mazdaspeed cut down about 1/2" and a voodoo knob, it was great when you were beating on it

some of them. the mazdaspeed replaces the stock lever only, its a 20 minute deal. the b&m replaces the entire shifter tower its a longer install

I just installed my B&M and it's the best thing I HAVE EVER DONE!!!! Drives like a fuggin Ferarri! Gears are like SO CLOSE!!!! If you don't have it, GET IT!!!

I have one in my S-10 w/ 400g knob but I bought it from private party.

Id love to get one for the FC, would local parts house carry? or special order?

B&M doesn't make one for FC's yet, gotta get mazdatrix or c's
