I don't have any problems engaging any gears, shifts actually feel less notchy, reverse is no problem either. I don't have any vibrations or rattling either.

Honestly if I had any issues with an aftermarket part I wouldn't spend this much time on a post for it. lol

Thanks for the compliment on the write-up!

Thanks!

The Abrams is a nice one, I also like the Big Type-R. I normally drive with my hand on the top of the stock shifter knob so if I can't get used to / don't like the Nismo, I'll get one of those two TWM shift knobs.
