Short Shifter

[Oglar]

Thinking of buying a shorter shifter for myself for x-mas. Whats a good brand to get?? I have done alittle research and i kinda like the pro 5.0 shifter. Anyone else have some opinions or what to stay away from out there?

I have the ripper and love it. The shifts are a tad bit shorter but they feel 100% better than the stock shifter ever did. It just shifts so much firmer. Some people say its a little bit harder to shift but in my opinion its not really enough to call.

And your stock shifer knob won't fit the pro 5.0 but if you do go that way get the lou's short stick.

didnt wanna have to reply to this yet again, but the 5.0 is one noisy, nasty, badass of a shifter, and i love it.

-oh, by the way, people with rippers still use the clutch when they race, what a joke.

Edit: By the way the stock shifter knob from mine fit fine, i cut about an inch off the top of the stick and screwed that puppy right on.

Whatdya mean by this? You don't use the clutch with the 5.0 shifter?
Man, if I tried that my sychronizers would be stripped.

Was actually just messing with all the people with rippers, but yeah just tap the clutch when your at the track, thats all thats requiered if you hit it hard enough. Then again this may be why im getting centerforce clutch put in...today. Synchros are fine.

Just to be different, I put the Hurst Comp+ in w/ Lou's Short stick - very sweet.

Anything beats the stocker... I thought I liked the stock until I got used to my B&M - [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I have the Hurst Billet Plus with Lou's Short Stick...no complaints at all here.
