Short shift kit install

[RElias21]

For those of you who did not install yourselves, where did you get your SSK Installed and how much?

I'm particularly interested in the AutoSolutions SSK install.

Thanks!

Hey RElias21 , hope you are doing well. I had my SSK (Rogue) and polyurethane rear shifter bushing done at ACM in Fairlawn. Great group of guys, excellent work- reach out to Jeff, he'll help you out.

Thanks man, I'll def check in with them.
From my experience though, they're usually on the more expensive side. Maybe you can PM what they charged you?

Anyone else?

I am in Basking Ridge, and am unsure on if I'll be doing the job myself or get someone else to do it, so I'd be curious to hear what other places people are using.

Thanks, Matt.

While I'm sure that AutoCouture does outstanding work, I'm usually priced out of employing your services (see my post above in response to another forum member's recommendation of you).

I figured I would call nonetheless and was quoted 4.5 hours for this job. I'll keep it respectful and just say that I can't imagine this job EVER taking a shop like yours (that knows what it's doing with eyes closed) more than 2 hours.

Thanks again, but I'll keep looking.

If anyone is aware of other quality shops in NJ, please let me know.

I'm sorry the pricing we quoted you wasn't what you were looking to spend. If there is anything else we can help you with in the future please let us know.

TTT….still looking for good, honest shops.

[RElias21]

Still looking for a shop in NJ that's done this install before. Anyone?

Update:

I ended up going to TSD Motorsports in Hammonton, NJ for my SSK install and CDV delete.

For those of you who don't know these guys, they used to work with Bryan @ Kies Motorsports and then ended up opening their own shop.

Cliff & Pete @ TSD were very honest, trustworthy and knowledgeable installers, and gave me the most competitive install price by quite a large margin.

I would definitely recommend them!

Nice- how do you like both mods?

The AutoSolutions SSK is built to order based on customer requested specs.

My SSK was 24% overall reduction Ratio including OEM height-10mm.
I also got the 80A front bushing upgrade.

The shifter is very precise now. It almost feels like a gated manual transmission. It's def worlds apart from stock.

Currently, shifting effort is a bit too increased for my liking when I leisure driving, but it's also likely still breaking in. The kit is clearly top notch. Hopefully, I didn't go too aggressive with my specs.

I've essentially only driven the car home, so can't really comment re: CDV delete yet.

I also find the shifter height to be very unsporty from the factory and am happy I dropped it a bit. I will likely buy an OEM M Performance shifter soon, which I think will drop it even more.
