I've been working on improving the connected feel of this car since I got it. To me, the shifter and clutch feel not match the rest of the car.

I did get the M5 knob, UCP (stiffest setting), and have changed to Redline MTL, which both have helped tremendously.

I'm still debating if it is worth trying an SSK with the M3...
+1 for the AutoSolutions kit, it makes an enormous difference. The stock shifter feels like stirring a bowl of mashed potatoes while the AS shifter feels like a bolt action rifle. Seriously, you need it!

Thanks for the info! What spec did you have your SSK built to?

I basically told Ronald to build it to whatever spec he would build for himself. It came out to ~18% throw reduction and +6mm height to account for my 12mm shorter F10 shift knob.

I hear ya.. first thing i noticed too but it doesn't bother me too much because you can only tell when you are standing above it.. I don't want to add the lip extension because I'd probably lose the whole lip on a raised road structure pretty quickly. Sadly I've never had a lip last for more than 2 years on our local roads.
