Does anyone have (prefereably close up) pics of a TWM short shifter? I'm pretty positive I'm getting one, just want to see how it looks. Also, I've been told that it will wear down the clutch faster than with the stock shifter? Is this true?

just put grease where they tell you, and put alot of grease on the ball part of the shifter, not so it pours out but work it around in the housing so it will move around easier. mine was stiff for a good hour but i sat at redlights with the clutch in and shifted 1 to 2 as fast as i could then back into 1 then to 2 (kinda like a beat off motion as fast as i could biggrin.gif ) and it worked the grease and what not into the joints. going into 5th is the only problem i have, its to far away so you have to push to far to get to it. since the shifter is shorter its more of a pain in the ass on my wrist since i have the leather covered armwrest.

theres the shifter throws with the twm shifter. its kinda ****ty photoshop but i was in a hurry and it gets the job done.

its in relation to neutral which is in the middle rolleyes.gif and you can see how far 5th is from the rest of the gears.
