Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion · Original poster

I'm really curious how they compare with other SSKs (B&M, stock, etc.) and whether people have tried using only the red bushings on the stock shifter (i.e., no throw reduction but presumably much more precise due to tighter bushings than the stock cheap plastic crap).

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 2Original post

Ahsai I tried for that same answer a few weeks ago with no response. Maybe its one of the last, great untried mods left. Maybe we should be the pioneers?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Um, I'm surprised that I don't even get a single reply of someone using this kit. It makes me wonder how good the kit is, so I think I would pass. - Ahsai

POST 4Original post

When I started Boxstering 7 years ago some of the local owners were putting in the EVO unit. Back then the metal needle bearings/bushings were an option that you paid extra for. Some owners paid extra for the metal bearing. In fact some would buy just the bearing from EVO and use them with the B&M. Back then the bushings that came with with the B&M did not have metal shells like they do now. Then over time the B&M became the unit of choice. There is a greater shift throw reduction with the B&M. I can think of 2 local Boxster owners I know who removed the EVO and put in the B&M because they wanted a greater reduction. I don't consider one unit superior to the other. It depends on how much shift throw reduction you want.

POST 5Original post

I put in just the Evo needle bearings several years ago as I thought the 6-speeds were notchy/stiff enough. I don't think throw is the limiting factor in shifting. It is the heavy flywheel, and generally notchy/sloppy shifter. The needle bearings will remove about 1/2 of the "slop" which adds markedly to the shifter feel. Highly recommended if you don't want shorter throws or notchier shifting.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for all the info, guys. I may try it some day on the stock shifter I kept after the SSK install. - Ahsai
