so at first i was thinking about getting the twm. but after searching for reviews it seems like:
a) the twm is more for looks than function, shortens the knob, so a shorter hand movement, but the same pivot point. b) the twm 7th gen fits the 6gc and is actually more functional because of increased pivot height. c) there are several off-brand kits on ebay for the 7th gen and many are supposed to be very good. this one maybe: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Short-Shifter-TOYO...494&vxp=mtr or maybe this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MEGAN-SHORT-THROW-...daa&vxp=mtr someone mentioned the purple spacers on a previous thread. but all the ebay links are gone now (as these will be soon too) but perhaps i can take a photo when/if i get one and post a more permanet review. anyways, if anyone here can offer advice on which one to get i'd appreciate it. looking mostly for a quicker shift. slightly lower might be sort of nice too (hand just feels a little high when i shift right now). really don't want to bump it into the handbrake. thanks in advance |

Let us know how it feels. I haven't liked any short shifters that I've felt on our cars yet. They all clunk and feel rattly to me. OEM feels so smooth and easy that idk if I want short throw. (besides, our throw isn't that big anyway. Try driving a 1980 corolla)
