Hello everyone. I need some help choosing a short shifter and wanted to know what you recommend, Neuspeed, Skunk2, Buddy Club, DC sports or any other. I am currently using a B&M setup, which I dont like. So if you have any information let me know. Pics would also help. Thanks in advance. Oh yeah Single or Dual Bend, differences?

 

why don't you like the b&m shifter??

 

The shifting feels rough. Not Good. Could it be the bushings?

 

Im using the b&m one right now, and i like it. but i've driven a teg with the Skunk2 dual bend, and i like it alot.

 

Skunk2

 

i dont know how many of these posting are out there just search and see what people have boughten

i personally think short shifters are retarded and useless

if your looking for a new shifter go to http://www.heeltoe.com and look at the, i think its called fastline shifters

they are extended but dont lengthen the shifting, they just make it so its closer to the steering wheel so you can have both hands on the wheel more instead of reaching completely out of the way to shift.


it makes more sense. i think its retarded if you have to lean forward at all to reach the shiftknob.

I also think that short shifters are unnecessary on a daily driven car.

 

I have a TWM Performance shifter on mine. Feels great, have poly euro bushings too.

get the skunk2 **** too...

 

I have to jump on the bandwagon....Skunk2 with the **** FTW!

 

I've heard alot of good things about Skunk2's short shifter/**** combo.. something about counter-weight... Skunk2 FTW!!

 

i have a skunk 2 ****...lets just say 98 degree florida sunshine doesnt make well with your hands and that ****...i often use a paper towel to shift

 

not DC Sports

DC=Breakage

 

Buddy Club or Skunk2

 

I got a B&M double bend shifter with polyeurethane bushings. Best money ever spent.

 

I got the Skunk 2 **** and the Skunk 2 Single bend and the are a great combo!!!!!

that's the reason they have the dual-bend. it sits back like your stock shifter, you may have to reach a little more, but oh well... it's more fun to drive.

 

Thanks for all the info. I did do the search and it comes down to the Buddyclub OR Skunk2. BUT more people seem to like the Skunk2, SO I think I'll give it a try.
