it wouldnt break like that persay.....but it is so strong that its almost impossible to break...... ive seen ti withstand all kinds of ****....and to have one break from driving a car , no way thats real ti.....

agreed, this may sound funny to some but I have a titanium bar inplace of my right humourous. The **** is definatly strong but brittle not bendable..

A heavier shift **** will give you more leverage for smoother, faster shifts, so why would you want an insanely light shift **** that could potentially break? </TD></TR></TABLE>

werd. weighted ***** are better.

 

spoon has always gone the ligher route when it comes to *****. my duracon **** weighs nothing . but i love it and dont have a problem shifting.

 

I had a Duracon too. Look in Santos's car.

GO drive a buddies car with a weighted shifter.... This is one of the only area's in your car that you would want to add weight to.

 

92 gsr shift **** pnws all!!!!!!!!!!!

 

damn that sux

 

It takes a fat set of nuts to admit a part you gave your first born up for is really a piece of garbage. Way to be man...we need more like you around

 

i've got one. i love it, no problems at all.

Actually there are mutlitude of titanium alloy mixtures, from most hard (brittle) to easily bend blends. You can purchase a whole variety of different ti alloys just like metal. If it is hard and brittle enough it will crack. I think spoon didn't account for the right hardness in developing this ****.

Should've test runned before going public. Goes to show you not all JDM is good JDM.

 

hmmmmmmmmm

 

there seems to be a misunderstanding here.. spoon used titanium.. and it is really hard.. but the weak points are where they attached the thread to the body of shift ****.. look at the picture more closely.. you will notice that there are 4 points where the thread is attached to the body.. and thats where the crack starts and spread around causing it to break..

 

Yeah, needless to say, more testing should be done before releasing to the public. Atleast they are honoring returns, if not, then they are no better than some of the brands with (they may come broken disclaimers).

 

mine never broke. been over a year now

i dont think spoon likes u

 

i went to speedstar today.. i asked them about the redesigned version of the ****.. they said they will come in next week or so.. i showed them my partly cracked **** and they agreed to exchange me a new one once they arrive..

 

thats why i stick to a itr one..

 

I love all the posts about "why would you use titanium for a shift ****?"

Oh wait a minute HONDA used titanium for shift ***** with the earlier S2000 models.........

And as someone else already mentioned, there are these things called alloys.... not all things advertised as Ti have the same makeup.

Was the S2000 **** solid or hollow? A hollow titanium shift **** is just too light IMHO, no performance gains whatsoever.

Im happy with my skunk2,
but I swap back the leather GSR **** on occasion

 

you know what i think it is ......maybe the **** is ti but on the botton , where you screw it on is a different metal , and there just isnt a good enough bonding between the 2 metals.... i know there are different forms of ti , but none i know of will brake from shifting......its all too strong for that

skunk2 **** but to Rota Brad?

 

i heard once that having a rediculously heavy shift **** can cause syncros to go becuz of the constant pressure when car is in gear...which to me kinda makes sense if the shift **** is heavy enough....

anyways i have a black Mugen ****...its not heavy but to light and it feels great
