    Hurst makes a STS for the NV3500. actually they stopped production a few months ago, but they can be found. if you're wanting to race with an NV3500, though, you'll want the M50 from the S10 - it has closer gear ratios. you'll also wanna do the drill mod on the clutch line & (if money allows) replace the master cylinder with one actually made of metal

    i think it's fun when I win races lol.. but seriously standards are fun. My girlfriend has a 350z M6 and it's fun as hell to drive. I can't imagine having a std truck in traffic though.

    honestly i know autos are practically impossible to match these days but honestly go for a ride in an auto with 300-350 hp and then take a rip in a standard with the same and you can have a hell of a lot more fun in a manual. i only say 300-350 cuz you guys pushing 4-5-6 hundred doesnt really matter because you pretty much destroy tires regardless of the speed or gear lol. just wish i could be as consistant with a manual as some of these awesome autos that are built. but hey at least im not replacing my t-56 every other week gl to all you 4l60e guys out there from all the posts i read im not jealous that i dont have one LOL.
