Shifter bushing

402 Views 5 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  RespectTheTwins
I noticed that my 3000GT VR-4 sometimes has a problem getting it into 1st gear. I can get it into 1st but it's not perfectly smooth. I took it to a transmission shop and they said there's nothing wrong with the transmission but that it is in the shifter itself. Anyone know where I might be able to find bushings for the shifter?

BTW, it only has 16,900 original miles on it so it's likely not worn. Maybe just due to age.

Many people use skateboard or roller blade bearings as a cheap replacement/Upgrade

These bearings are for replacing the shifter cable bushings, not the actual shifter bushings.
