Manual shifter bushing bronze vs plastic
Anybody used the bronze bushing to repale the plastic cup in the shifter? Any long term issues after the installation?
Thanks

There may be a little more transmitted noise.. I dont see where there would be an improvement. You would do better replacing the rubber bushings that isolate the box from the TT under the two fasteners that secure the box to the TT.
The ZO6 shifter is secured with metal bushings.

I agree.. OR just lock them down with metal washers. The ZO6 shift box has solid metal bushings (metal fillers vs rubber bushings)
You get a little more drive train noise but a LOT more precission shifter response.
