Don't forget to add tax and shipping as well. I am not complaining about the Group Buy price, and I quite honestly don't think anyone is, but... from looking past the Group Buy deal, I saw a SSK valued at $120.00 and thought I'd be receiving a quality product. And I say "I" but I think everyone in the Group Buy who has attempted to install the SSK can agree that the quality of the product is not what it should be. Perhaps NST should make the Group Buy price the actual price of their SSK. That way at least people have an idea as to what the quality of the product really is. That is just my opinion.

Thats fair enough, however we paid the GB price and then add in shipping. Still..past the cost of materials what is NST making? Certainly not what B&M is for a very similar looking SSK. Additionally i think the shift knob is not an issue(except for the guy who got the wrong one?) or am i wrong?

I would like to see the red shift knob i have with a slightly raised lip around the edge tho so the sticker sat down into it a little bit but thats just me.

I just chqnged it back to stock and..... 100 % better shifts go right in nothing notchy etc... while I had the stocker out I cleaned and regreased everything. The stock lube almost feels like some kind of silicone. I see alot of posts that people are pissed. For $50 bucks I was hoping it would work better but, the fact is it did work just not that good imo. I will just caulk it up to something that didn't work for me.

So Chuck PM you addy and I will get this in the mail with the Mishimoto radiator and thermostat
