Complete installation/review of NST's Yaris drivetrain products
I installed NST's SSK, SSK2, shifter bushing kit, and cage bushing kit on my Yaris. It can all be viewed on my Web site:
Review and Installation: NST short shifter and bushing kits: http://www.subcompactculture.com/200...nst-short.html Direct link to the installation: http://subcompactculture.com/NST_Dri..._Products.html In short, anyone thinking about buying these products will not be disappointed. The installation is easy and the results are amazing. The shifter now feels like it was lifted from a high-end sports car. Very nice product, NST!

Nice writeup, 39!
I have the cable bushings and the SSK-1 and love the new feel... I'm still debating whether I should go all the way and get the cage bushings and SSK-2

wow awesome review... was wondering what those bushing kits were for exactly... I just installed the SSK for the engine bay yesterday and it is really nice! If bushing kits and the other SSK are good as you say, those might be one of my next mods...

They really are. I've had short shifters in about five different vehicles (two Hondas, a Scion, and a Nissan), and the NST components are definitely the nicest I've had.

It's also my understanding that the main reason Toyota used the rubber parts it to lessen the enging feeling in the shifter, but for sports car i think it's a benefit to feel it... Do you feel the engine better? or is the vibration distracting or annoying?
