Nope. Different animal. Has to be for a regular N/A 3. Be thankful. The Speed shifters are more expensive and do not come (the last time I checked) with the solid bushing. They were offered as a separate kit for $25 =more.

When I first read that I thought, "Why would you want a 3-speed shifter???? The car has five gears!". Then it made more sense to me. lol. Try 'speed 3' in the future to avoid confusion.

lmao.. i fell for it too.. aside from the bushing, the reverse gear is set differently on the speed 3 shifter, so that make a difference as well..

Well don't look at me. I'm b.b.rich on eBay. 'Sides, I already got a TWM.
'Shoulda' done the Buy-It-Now option when you had the chance. It wouldn'ta' been the best deal in the world, but alot better than the +/-$200-$250 it woulda' cost you elsewhere.
And, don't worry. If you don't get this one, you can always go to TWM, and they often offer discount "sales," student and military discounts too. The TWM has a slightly shorter throw anyway... about a +10% difference, iirc.
