Aren't those "Bubble" shift knobs the completel opposite of what a Shrot throw does?

QUOTE (jordisonjr @ Mar 21, 2012 - 8:01 AM)  Aren't those "Bubble" shift knobs the completel opposite of what a Shrot throw does? Why would the knob have anything to do with a short throw set up? A proper short throw set up has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the height of the knob.  Momo weighted knob w/ 7th gen short throw.  QUOTE (richee3 @ Mar 21, 2012 - 6:36 AM) Only had it about a week. Currently using a TRD replica.  I will be swapping out to this ^^ when my car is back on the road. This post has been edited by KAOS: Mar 21, 2012 - 9:29 AM -------------------- |

Well if your hand was at the top it would have to travel farther from 1st to 2nd, then if it had a OEM or shorter shift knob. Would it not? -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

Well if your hand was at the top it would have to travel farther from 1st to 2nd, then if it had a OEM or shorter shift knob. Would it not? Thats actually a common misconception. With that logic; simply chopping the top off the shift rod would achieve the same effect. Its not about how the shift "feels" (your hand movement on the shifter), its about changing the fulcrum point so that more of the distance traveled is happening in the "background" so to speak...
