Default Toy Guy Short Shifter!

Just installed Toy Guy's short shifter. MAN, this thing is great! The entire feel of the car changed, became so much more tight, precise, and substantial. I've noticed that the new shifter is much better matched with the steering of the car and it got rid of all notchiness. Had it installed in 1 hour, including adjustments. I'd recommend this to anyone who can get their hands on one. If you want to view Toy Guy's site, I put a link below, check it out. 100% reccomended, it honestly feels 100X better.<ul><li><a href="http://www.toyguy.o-f.com/">Toy Guy's Website</a></li></ul>

The shifter retains stock height and look, you have to adjust it slightly back (7 degrees) and to the right (3 degress) from the center, but neutral still feels like the same position. Very smooth and stocklike (what stock should have been).

Default you can get him to shorten it as well. i had him cut off 1/2 inch off the top of mine.

pretty sweet if you ask me...
he even rethreads the end so the shift *** fits well.
