Can't imagine that you have been in Japan for a month and still cannot speak Japanese. 
I thought it comes with a Japanese manual
Knock yourself out. Mez did a thread.

MS shifter is the same, just a different the bottom plate for reverse gear.

Hopefully can do it this week. I need to install my LED parking lights first woot! I know that's easy, but usually I end up with scratches all over my hand hahahaha...

I've tried a Honda Accord Euro with short shifter (I used to own one as well so can feel the difference), and yeah, it was really good. So I can't wait to install this one on my car

Anyway, I've installed it weeks ago, and to tell you the truth, I'm far from happy with it. 
Don't think I'll buy any of the MazdaSpeed brand again, IMHO, they are over rated. I tried Kall's AFE short shift and AFE is definitely shorter than mazdaspeed. So anyone thinking to get mazdaspeed short shifter, DON'T! Save yourself some bucks and go for AFE.

I like Kall's shifter, but I prefer my stock one for daily driving to be honest. It could be a little shorter, but I find the throw quite comforting, and it's still shorter than the modified shifter in my other car.
