First question, will upgrading my shifter bushings really make that big of a difference? i already have the 7th get shifter and aluminum base bushings for my shifter, so how much difference is there?
and will these bushings work? i know they say they will fit a 7th gen celica, tc, yada yada, but alot of the parts off the 7th gen fit our cars, here is the link

you can also fitted small bearings in the end of the shifter cables or so I have been told maybe Skate board ones??



That is actually not a bad idea at all, not to sure if they inner diameter will be small enough for the pin of the shift linkage tho?

The inner diameter of standard skateboard bearings is about .314", slip fit for a 5/16 shaft. outer diameter is about .866 with a thickness of about .275".
They sell 8mm but I don't know much about them except they are expensive and used mostly on precision downhill trucks.
