short throw shifters?

scp616 · September 11th, 2009, 07:47 PM

i got this thing called "the evacuator " from northern tool and it can pump old tranny fluid out, and new fluid in, it's great
yeah i worked on a t5 not too long ago that was the same way, idk why it was so tight

hollagraphik · September 11th, 2009, 07:49 PM

even though you made your decision i still wanna say i vote mgw all the way lol. ive tried a few and the mgw seems to be the best, and the 2nd to 3rd ratio of hit or miss is 10:1.

02gtmustang · September 11th, 2009, 07:53 PM

Yea I used to fight 3rd sometimes when shifting slow...I haven't missed it since...ever

I have a Steeda Tri-ax which I DO NOT RECOMMEND.
It rattles rather loudly when I step on the gas.
Throws are only marginally shorter than stock.

MGW is the hotness.

scp616 · September 11th, 2009, 08:17 PM

thanks for all the input guys!
I'm going to order the mgw and a new clutch right now

Love my MGW. Very smoot, tight, and firm (yes, we can take that a sexual way too

)

MGW is adjustable to where you want it, its not straight it has a bend in it. I like it ALOT. You cant go wrong with the Pro 5.0, but the MGW seems to be a lil more comfortable. Get the 60$ composite race nob.

one you have the shifter off, where do you pour the tranny fluid in?

mrsinister2424 · September 16th, 2009, 03:33 PM

Wtf... what kind of tranny is that?

02gtmustang · September 16th, 2009, 03:46 PM

I thought a 3650...I got the pic off of the american muscle website...I just got my MGW in the mail, and was going to change the fluid, was trying to figure out where to pour the fluid before I started

here is the link to that pic

but pour it where...in the whole rectangle or in the round hole?

02gtmustang · September 16th, 2009, 03:52 PM

the round hole is just where the shifter goes in... you know that rod coming out the bottom and make sure you get your plastic piece of your stocker... and just pour it in there... that hole will just overflow into the trasnny lol i kinda just rinsed overything in there off with the new stuff for the fun of it

It does have a drain plug so no pumping out is required....

02gtmustang · September 16th, 2009, 04:02 PM

Applehead281 · September 16th, 2009, 06:18 PM

i have the pro5.0 its good but sometimes it feels a bit notchy going in and also the height is kindive an issue i have to lean forward to shift i really don't like that go with mgw!

scp616 · September 16th, 2009, 06:20 PM

I just got the mgw from ups like 5 minutes ago, but now i have to get a shift knob, cause the crap one i got off ebay didn't have a set screw so it's held on with locktight.... and it's not wanting to come off. So it's about to get pipe wrenched lol
