If you screw up your car trying to make it work dont complain to me, Thanks. I also have an mgw shifter for sale now if anyone wants.

The best mod ive done to the car so far, thing is extremely direct.

This is my track car so its something to make each lap more interesting.

Video link, dont judge my red hands. The car attacked me when installing this haha

Maybe should have considered a Bremer sequential shifter

I don't think I have ever seen a longer shifter in a performance car except maybe those sequential shifters used in race cars

That must put your arm at a really weird angle.

I remember everyone putting the shorty shifters in the 4th Gens.

To much money and this shifter is probably better, smoother shifts and matches the steering wheels height

These are usually put in bmw racecars
Its actually a perfect angle. Ive tried the hurst shifter/lg shifter and mgw. All three are completely trash imo

As long as you like it that is the only thing that matters
