Skunk2 short shifter

was looking for a good short shifter online and came across what i think is a good price. what you guys think?http://planetperformance.com/products/?productID=1033858

$87??? No man, that's way too much. Honestly, no brand is really better than the other when it comes to short shifters. They're all pretty much the same. Except Tenzo - don't buy one of those (more on that later).

Don't get me wrong, Skunk2 is a good brand, but for that price you could get a Neuspeed (which is better IMO) and a set of Energy Suspension shift linkage bushings.

Check eBay & you'll find all kinds of short shifters for less than $50 (including shipping).

short shifters are over rated period

They're nice for us lazy people who don't want to move our arms as far to shift, lol.

Except when you snap the cheap eBay aluminium ones in half.....

Any short shifter can snap. I snapped the threads off my Tenzo - with the stock shift knob on it. Now I have some no-name short shifter that I still have to install.

yeah i bought a 8 dollar short shifter. thats the most i would spend on a shifter. no need to buy a 87$ shifter. hope mine dont snap.

or just use a stock one, and learn to drive

My car has a getto short shifter. It's the stock shifter, but with about 1-2" cut off the top, so no shift knobs really fit on it, but the shifting is way shorter :rolleyes: I really need to get a new shifter.

I use a hurst nothing else is worthy of my arm IMO.
Skunk2 does make very good products so i'll say with all the other products of theres i've seen/use i'll give it my OK.

Marc-OS why don't u re-thread the shifter so u can have a shift knob fit?
