Re: short throw shifters

i dont know man. I've heard tons of horror stories about bad shifters literally breaking and sinking into the ground while your driving. And new ones at that, which havent been really used...if you get one, get a really good brand. Dont know anything about shirt shifters but I've heard B&M everywhere.

RRE (www.roadraceengineering.com) have pretty much mastered dsms and they say that the b&m edge shifter is the best. if your concerned about the money...... dont buy a riced out shift knob and put that money towards your short throw shifter that will make a difference. just my opinion tho.
