Maybe steeda will start making bushings like these.. hint, hint. I took the holidays into consideration when I placed the order. However, this is exactly what the ad says:
THIS ITEM IS CURRENTLY ON MADE TO ORDER STATUS - To order this item, please add it to your cart, and check out as normal. The item will ship within 2-4 weeks (possibly sooner).
This implies a wait time of course, but also tends to indicate that 4 weeks is more the max. I’m at 5 weeks and TurboGT is at 7 weeks by my count. (Actual Weeks, not dates.. I’m in insurance.. we count weeks) lol. I’ll just waiting patiently, and if I don’t have them in a few months then I’ll go from there. Ultimately what matters is that I get them and they work.

I thought about the mountune shift arm. How long have you been waiting on that?

Ordered on January 5th.
Finally got a reply after a 3rd email. He's had some crappy life events recently that have gotten in the way of work. He said he's getting the parts turned out soon though.
I hate to hear that about him. Hopefully everything turns out okay. Thank you for posting back. I am looking forward to them.. just debating on buying a shift arm or keep saving for a turbo.. decisions.. decisions. lol
Shift mods trash synchros. Big turbos trash the competition.
Good call lol

I dunno, I think it's all in the way you use shift mods. Have to keep a light touch.
Big turbos trash tires too!

DRIVERS trash synchros. People dont rev match.
Is it banging gears that breaks the synchros?

I think the operative word there is "banging".

Kinda, people who dont try to rev match, put EXCESSIVE strain on the synchros and internal gear selector components.
Its more the nut behind the wheel.
Some members here are super paranoid about mods, you just need to learn how to operate the vehicle better/with the mods.
Also, get the JBR arm. Lol
I agree. However, shorter throws create shorter shift times in ALL driving scenarios, which increases every day stress. Take that for what it's worth.
