Short Throw Shifters

my00stang · November 18th, 2007, 10:51 AM

i have a 2000 gt i am looking to put on a b&m short throw kit.
what is everyones opinion on the short throw i know it reduces the distance between gears but is it any real upgrade or is it any better than the custom stick that comes in them

thanks in advance for any help or suggestions

i have the steeda short throw in my car and could tell a definate difference.

I'd personally recommend a pro5.0 shifter...

although u cant go wrong with a steeda tri-ax either

i love my steeda tri-ax. i had the pro 5.0 in, and didnt like how it was set-up.

my00stang · November 18th, 2007, 12:48 PM

but is it worth it to change to a short throw, i don't race that often but have alway heard it improves your speed in shifting and you don't miss gears

i had the b&m go with a tri ax b&m wasnt really all that great there is no was to adjust handle height or position

it helps a lot. no slopiness and quick shifts. can't beat the tri-ax in my opinion

I thought Pro 5.0 was the best until i wrapped my hand around a MGW Shifter.

Its got its advantages over the Pro 5.0 with the adjustable-ness but i would say there two of the best shifter made.

ForestGRN_Ghost · November 26th, 2009, 06:34 PM

just about any short throw is better then stock.

myself i love my tri ax.

Pittbull · November 26th, 2009, 06:36 PM

MGW FTWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's wat I'm gettin when I replace mine. MGW is the best in the shifter bizz son no shit

pyschopath76 · November 26th, 2009, 07:03 PM

i have heard the MGW is the best one out there because you can adjust it to where you want it. the one reason i want one myself.

HMUSN · November 26th, 2009, 07:55 PM

I have had the tri ax, the pro 5.0 and the MGW. the mgw is the best hands down for a street car.
