Triax

But im one of those people thats in the minority in regards to suggesting it; like mine; zero rattle/noise; like the height (some people complain its too low); zero problems; never miss 3rd.

Keep in mind though that shift throw distance is relative to two things:
1. pivot point location in regards to total distance between points
2. arm length

THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO SAID MGW!
I just got it in and drove it, and i love the way it shift
That is a crazy short throw, way shorter than my friend's hurst!
and it's awesome how you can move it where ever, i can actually use my front cup holder now haha
Seriously, great product, and it was at my house 2 days after i ordered it (standard shipping)

Muscle it! Last owner put a Mach knob on mine, thing was a bitch to get off, because it was held on with thread locker. Get some mechanix or rubber gloves and rip that some bitch off.
