    Its prob the heatshield that is probrably gone. From the aftermarket exhaust. Or you could really have a hole in the firewall form the auto-manual conversion... my shifter heats up after long drives.. b/c of the lack of heatshield form the aftermarket exhaust.
    Not sure which heat shield you're talking about. I do know that there is a heat shield under there near around the same area that keeps heating up. Not only is it not coming from the firewall, but there was no auto-manual conversion. The GSR only comes in manual. Aftermarket exhaust is the only one of these three possibilities you're giving me that may be a possibility.

    whoops i was reading twinJ's comment and i thought u did the conversion.

    But there is a heatshield (or should be) on Oem exhaust, like above the Cat, and or under the shifter linkage, to keep heat from coming in thru the floor like that. and to protect the bushings in the shhifter linkage.
