Had to wait until the car was completely straight to downshift without denial. I'll have to bug Vorshlag on the Engine Mounts. I realized they didn't make them when I started investigating |

@andrey_gta: From the pictures you posted, it seems like you were able to install the new shift lever without going under the car. Is that right? How did you disconnect the shift lever from the shifting arm and remove the c-clip from the top? I just ordered the BMW SSK which should hopefully arrive in the next couple weeks.

needle nose pliers for the following: - Turn the Platic White bushing Flat head screw driver - Take off The BMW*tch clip - simply slide down and pray it falls to ground and not heat shield - Put back the clip, or a new clip with the help of wire/ fishing line attached to clip loops and DRY non greasy hands/tools Wire bent to a hook - to hold and catch the Shift Linkage bar MASKING TAPE - two layers over trim for poterction Towels to wipe excess grease

I installed the SSK in my car. Few things to I thought I should note:
And some more pictures! I figure everyone likes pictures. Man I hate this rubber piece. This is how it looks like underneath. As you can see in the image, lots of room. I didn't have to take off any underpanel or move the heat shield or anything. Comparing the the stock shifter to the SSK. Left one is stock, right one is the SSK. Have to go back underneath the car to attach the clip. Couldn't get enough room to do it from within the cabin.

andrey_gta How long are your shift throws with the N54 shifter? How long were they with the factory 128i shifter?
I would think the N54 shifter throws would be 80mm's from 1st to 2nd gear. ?

Oem 128i lever is a lot like n55 stock lever throw at 75mm, but not n54 stock throw distance at 80mm distance. The reduction was by about 12-15mm. I will try to look it up:: Quote:
