oh gawd thats not good lol..

I remember my SC4 had hard shifting (common problem for pre 97 i believe)... one time it shifted so hard from when i put it in drive the tires actually chirped :/ i hope its not like that..

I like how the OE shifting the car just smoothly goes into drive or Reverse..

yea i will if i stick with a GS4 ... still debating if i should upgrade the pulley or not (assuming the 310cc injectors can handle the boost) and debating if i should infact upgrade to V3 supercharger... n if i do go that route would it be hard to drain the supercharger every 7000 miles or so due to the location of it.
