TWM short shifter

TWM short shifter

Postby Grnarowana » Thu Sep 07, 2006 3:49 am

I'm debating on putting in a TWM short shifter in my Solara. Are there any Pros and Cons about a shortshifter and whoever has a short shifter in their car, do you drivers even like it?


Is it worth the money? TWM is selling it for $149 with a 10% sudent or military discount.

Use a 92-93 celica one and it ends up being even shorter...

Definitely worth every penny. My friends used to joke that driving my car with the stock shifter was like driving a bus or semi!! I put it in myself and it only took 45 min or so.

yea, the 92-93 celica shifter sounds kinda sketchy...is it any good? for the poeple who wants to get them, should we stick with the TWM or TRD if we can even find them.
