for everyone with a short shift kit, can you recommend a brand?  Does anyone have an obx or a nismo?  The nismo is a bit pricey but it's one piece.  The obx is dirt cheap, but it's a two piece, and I've heard of horror stories where the 2 pieces separate.  Is this true?

I have used the Pilot Motorsports SS for about 1.5 year without ANY problems. Its a great unit and is built just like the OBX. Although If I can find myself a Nismo SS then I will buy one just because its 1 peice. I would buy the OBX or PM SS again though if I had to, they are still very good units.

the nismo is $200 and the obx is $80.  i spent a bunch of $$ to get a centerforce dual-friction clutch, but there is a huge diff between that and a cheaper clutch.  Do you think the nismo is really worth the extra $120?  
Plus, the nismo only comes with japanese instructions...
