[QUOTE=firetyphoon1;29889383]Might need some elaboration from you as well. What mods did you do?
#2 Clutch Stop: Allows faster and smoother shifts by removing the dead space between your clutch pedal and the floor. Snaps into place like your OEM clutch stop and is fully reversible. For me it made reversing uphill into my garage a lot easier. #4 Bushing: Even after rebuilding your manual transmission shifter with brand new BMW components or installing a short shift kit, your shifts will still be at the mercy of soft factory bushings. Designed with 100% comfort and low manufacturing costs in mind, BMW's factory carrier bushing offers a freedom of movement on all axis, resulting in "factory installed slop". Any manual transmission aficionado knows that when it comes to shifting, slop is the enemy. Causing inconsistent gear locations, embarrassing missed shifts, and an overall experience that is less than confidence inspiring. The result of the bushing, is a complete design solution that offers much crisper shifting and a more engaging driving experience with nearly zero added gearbox noise or For #2 that’s what I did. I added. BMS clutch stop. I’ve done clutch stop and CDV delete. Which has been great. Where does the bushing goes specifically? For the gearbox Mount or the shifter assembly is what I gather? Thanks for the dialogue |

Should show pics of where. Not sure of any detailed installs since it's last on my list to pursue.

They've been released by rogue engineering. You can get the bushings or a kit that has some other pieces, here is a link. https://www.rogueengineering.com/Rog...Kit_p_408.html

Nice build. I’ll be picking mine up from the same dealership later this year. Curious, did you have a chance to drive through some curvy roads, being in the mountains and all? What types of speeds are recommended during break in (aside from the generic ones recommended by BMW) when driving in such conditions? Mostly just curious if it’s OK to drive through the mountains without issue. I’m sure it’ll be fun once I am able to pick up the car in the Fall.
Oh, and I also sold my ‘21 STi, so, will be interesting if you can provide some comparisons, even though I know they are different cars. |

Not sure if it depends if you're 6MT vs Auto, but I think nothing over 5K rpm or so. It's deff different from my STI, check out my IG for some videos. Going from a 6MT AWD to this 6MT RWD with everything I have on it, is amazing, don't even miss the STI honestly. You'll enjoy it! If you went Xdr, not you'll have a different ver. of fun, but all better nonetheless!

I kept it manual. Been driving manuals for years, so, was the best ‘fit’ for me.
Will be nice to drive in the mountains in the Fall, for sure. Followed your IG account from mine @mcsquaredphotography - cheers! |
