100% Fake.

Would have bought a Circuit Sport B&M Knock off since you need he whole plate.
but will it at least work? it was only 35 bones so im not really worrying to much about it.
Depends if thats what was missing. IDK what your missing. Post a pic, that'll help.
i have the shifter plate and original shifter just not the o ring and little plastic pieces that go on the shifter.ill post pic tomorrow.
Those two pieces will probably end up being close to, if not more, than your shifter :(
i bought an ebay short shifter and its terrible. i dont recommend it
i bought a shifter like that just different seller and its fine except it rattles at high rpms other than that no complaints for the price
ISIS Short Shifter > Ebay Short Shifter
Eh. Both rattle. :p
Really? My ISIS does not rattle at all. Did you replace the shifter bushing?
Yes, I've had the entire thing apart (shifter too) numerous times. It's the metal cone on it. Without factory rubber 99.9% rattle. Enjoy being .01 lol.
installing issues

did any of you guys with the ebay shifters have any problems installing at first? I've put mine in a couple of times but always end up taking it out cause it tries to pop right out of gear when ever I take off. Also grinds sometimes when im trying to put it in a gear.

Like ill literally have to force it to stay in first gear when i take off. 2nd seems ok but tries to pop out in 3rd.

Also were you supposed to keep that retainer pin (see pic) that was with the stock shifter with everything or just leave it off. (I tried both)

It seems to shift into gear just fine and smooth before you actually turn on the engine and try to take off....what am i doing wrong here?

+1. You should see how mine sounds with the new OEM bushing, and the lightweight flywheel.. car sounds like a damn race car. i get gear rattle between 2-3k rpm when decel, and the infamous rattle/resonance at 5k. Its a B&M. with poly motor mounts.

It'll probably get worse once i put in a solid trans mount:giggle:
Yeah.....that race-car feeling goes away when you sit in a normal car/good car and realize there shit is better.
