Just got mine......
First off, I think this is the fastest i have even gotten anything when i ordered it on-line. Serious i ordered it tuesday night, and i have it in my hand friday night
Second, This is really heavy, I knew it was going to be heavy, but it surprised me at how heavy.
Third. I am very happy with how deep the threads are, this will allow the shifter to sit nice and low. I will post a couple pics of this compared to my current momo shifter.
Fourth. This is a very nice looking piec , The machine company did a great job, very smooth, finish is top quality!
Fith, the little dip for your thumb feels great, I have been sitting here with it in my hand and i love the feel of it. I cant wait to get it in the car and shift with it!!

Thanks again, I am a VERY happy customer!!!!!!

Here is mine installed. Sit at 6" above the shifter console area. I had a cheap *** ebay shifter **** on there before this and the Fox one sites about 3/4" lower. I cant find my momo shifter,but i know this must sit a good 1" lower.

yeah i can. if you sent me dimensions, or made a mold by squeezing clay i could replicate this one the exact same size as the clay form.

these ones that i do sell are the same size as skunk2/itr's. ive stated that, and their weight many times.

i didnt think id like it when i switched to it either, but you get really accustomed to it, and then you love it.

&lt;---bigger hands too

I'm curious about this shift ****.

I know you mentioned the size in comparison to the skunk2 shift ****, but is the weight also the same?

Also, I'm curious as to why would anyone go with this instead of a skunk2 shift **** for $3 more. I'm not trying to cause problems for you, but am curious as to what your **** has to offer over the skunk2.

It looks great BTW. Help me make my decision here. I'm torn between the skunk2 and yours....

P.S. Please tell me the weight differences between the skunk2 and your shift ****.

the weight is listed on the first page of this thread. skunk 2 is 440 g for reference.

mine has the dished top, as well as the lower sitting threads, over the skunk 2 which sits about an inch higher.

mine is cheaper. mine is different.

Specifics:
-303 Stainless Steel
-Inset threading so the **** sits lower on the shift lever
-Dished top for added comfort of your thumb
-412g/14.5oz. for a more balanced shifting assembly
-Machined silver finish for aesthetics

I looked at the S2 as well, and didn't like the finish, the shift pattern on the top, or the big, nasty "SKUNK2" ad on the side of it. And Derek's **** took powdercoating very well also.

It's all personal prefererence, of course, but I'm happy as a pig in sh*t with mine. And it's nice to support the little guy as well.
