Raffi,
  I thought I would mention to you, I have the TSR solid link (ball and socket) type linkage, and I absolutely f*cking love it!  It makes my car a joy to drive.  I put another kit in my project pickup.  jman on Vortex sells them for I think 70.00 shipped, well worth the money.  

  I personally cannot stand the cable-shifted trannies, they feel so vague.  The ball and socket type is very positive, you know where you are.  I even put a weight on mine, even better...

HTH,
   David
