Getting rid of my MTI short throw shifter
 
I like it don't get me wrong, but I have a hurst short throw on the way. Primarily I like the aestetics of the hurst better. I friend of mine has it and I prefer the look and feel.
Anyone want to buy my used MTI short throw? Unlike the Hurst it looks completely factory and has the factory knob, etc.
PM me with what's its worth to you or any questions.
The car had 6,000 miles on it and the mti was on it when I got it so I don't know exactly how long it was used, but it isn't long.
Thanks

OK, the hurst just showed up. I have to say, it just doesn't look as good as the pictures of the MTI. It has plastic for the joint, etc where the MTI is solid and much more sturdy looking. Hopefully I won't regret this switch out.

I waited several months for a RipShift. That MTI does look good though and the price is right.

IMO as a tool maker for over 20 years, the MTI is built much better. The MTI is a two piece construction that is pinned with roller bushing. And the Hurst is a two piece construction that is screwed together with a Delrin bushing. You will feel the Hurst as being more clunky in movement and the bushing will wear out 10X faster than the roller bushing of the MTI ...
