How long you had them in for? Still feel good?

Seems there are two versions available. Yellow ones, and black ones, which have (M) in the part number, meaning motorsport and are tougher.

Yellow ones I have. They've been in about 18 months - five track days and still feel good. The shift does soften up a bit on the track when the car is really hot so I guess if you want really stiff for the track then black it is. The yellows made no difference to NVH but I'm told the black ones do.

I have the black or motorsport version, between adding them and the group n trans mount I added a lot of NVH to my car but was worth it.

Have the yellows as well, very minimal increase of NVH, bear in mind that I did all of the Group N mounts at the same time.
One of the best and cheapest mods that you can do.
Plus you get a bit of 4th gear whine on deceleration which sounds porn!

You do a short shifter? Or do the later models come with 'em factory now, or optioned.

Neg, still using the factory dildo length shifter.
To be honest I don't mind using it now that it has been greatly tightened up.
Still a factory option to get the short shifter assembly though.
