Has anybody used this? (ebay item)

Came across it the other day. Looks o.k. Does Nismo even make this for our car or is it some cheap knock-off?
Any insight would be awesome!

Thanks again

looks like crap. If Nismo did make a short shifter for the maxima, it sure as hell wouldn't be 25 bucks.

Knock off, but how would nismo be better? Higher Price doesn't mean better.

looks like a generic STS with nismo sticker on it. i recommend B&M STS cuz it has good reputation and good feedbacks from the org...

Don't buy the NISMO...It doesnt even fit 95-99 max. The point where you are suppose to put in the piviot-bolt that connects the shifter to the linkage is far to small. Or the friggin seller sold me the wrong one. Anyways stay away!

allright, thanks for the replys. So, b&m is the way to go? What about the custommaxima unit? The review says that it's good and it's only 59 bucks if you mention the review when you order it. Anybody have any experience with it?
Thanks again.

yeah, that would be great. Also, if you could let me know how difficult the install process is. I've read all about it and I am somewhat handy but I don't want to mess up my car.

NISMO makes top quality products. Sh|t, you can't even get a NISMO radiator cap for $24. So this is fake.
