Dont buy a used shifter. And I got a Hurst. I like it alot but after two years of hard shifting and city driving its already getting sloppy and wore out. im gonna get the tri ax before spring when my build is done

HMUSN used to preach that fucking MGW thats mostly why it got spread around here then everyone started saying they where awesome. Now everyone hates them they wore out in a matter of months. They are junk dont buy a MGW
