some short shifters rattle a little and make funny noises. It is something you'll have to get used to. If it bothers you that much put on your stock one and swap it out when you race your car.

no i dont think hes talking about the actual shifter rattling, because i have the b&m shifter as well. it doesnt rattle at all. the sound he is refering to is the violent vibrating grrrr that it makes when you accelerate hard around corners. (correct?) i have that same problem. im not really sure what it is either. but it hasnt done anything bad to my car so i just think of it as a growl haha



if anything bad happens to your car because of this noise please let me know haha, and ill do the same. so far so good tho. ::crosses fingers::
