Default Shift **** and short shifter

I don't need racing shifter or shift *****, just something to replace the oem. Is this not even worth the 40 bucks?

Im not quite exact on what your trying to say. Im guessing your asking if you should replace your oem stock shift **** and shifter with an aftermarket?

I don't entirely understand the question either. If you're stating that you don't need or want a performance-oriented shifter or ****, then why are you looking to replace the stock pieces?

Stick with a new shift **** if you're just looking for a new look. The Skunk2 pieces are nice and their added weight improves feel.

I agree, if all you want is looks just get an nice shift ****. The Skunk2 is good, or Greddy Counter-weighted, etc.

Maybe now would be a good time to spark up a debate over the pros and cons of weighted vs. lightweight shift *****?

skunk 2 has a nice weight..but I like hte feel of the DC sports short shifters..

If you're going for looks, just buy a **** (like 30 - 40 bux), but if ur goin for the whole shifter it'll cost u about 120 (80 for the shifter, 40 for the ****..sometimes they come together...sometimes they don't)..
