I keep hearing so many different things I need a poll to get all the info together.* Please vote on actual knowledge of these (ie you've had one or have driven them, installed them...etc)
Price aside...what's the best bet for my modded 09 TC????* Poll closes in 14 days and I'll be ordering!* Thanks for the help as I've never driven a short throw (besided GM's version already in my car)

TWM:http://www.twmperformance.com/shorts...rt-shifter.htm

Hurst:http://www.turbotechracing.com/produ...dcategory=5615

i thought TWM only fit the 2.2's i guess they finally made one for the 2.0's

neways, i have the b&m and i love it.

The hurst i believe used to have fitment issues, if that wasnt the case i know you lose ur reverse lock out.

 

I kinda heard that as well.* I'm leaning away from the hurst but I'm sure I'll hear bad stories about the others as well.* I'm hoping the poll shows a clearcut winner.

 

Not true, i have a hurst with no fitment issues, and a fully functional reverse lockout. It's user failure during installation that causes problems. Not the shifter.

However, the TWM is a very nice shifter, which i will eventually be upgrading to.

 

i have a b&m and its real nice....the only thing is the b&m knob is all metal so it sucks in the winter it feels like a big icecube

 

Please vote guys....I'll heavily base my decision on a poll winner.

 

the Hurst fits great and the reverse lockout works well, but after about 3 months of having it on it kind of wiggles from side to side a little bit. Haven't really checked it out but it may just be the set screw. Looks great but if I were to do it again I would go with TWM. I just dont like the way the B&M looks good.

 

it is the set screw. Guarantee it

 

Twm!

 

Stock > aftermarket

 

yeah i was not 100% sure about the hurst but theres ur answer the hurst works fine now, but apparently everyone is upgrading it. that says something.

 

Yeah....seems to be a trend. Only a few people responded so far though. I'll give it a few days and see where this all stands.

 

dude TWM FTW. I had it on my LSJ with teflon grease instead of the white lithium grease. gave it a nice stiff shift for a lil while and loosened up a lil. I LOVED that thing. ill be switching it over to the LNF once I get my car back from the insurance companies.

but def TWM. trust me you will like the diff. even the height diff is nice.

 

I need to get little socks like that to cover the knob cause it get damn hot when the sun hits it.

 

i love mine i have the twm gunmetal weighted shift knob and it is a really easy install plus the adjusting the gears like everyone was having problems with before with the hurst and the b&m i had no problems with the twm love it

 

B&m Ftw

 

I had zero install or functionality problems with my hurst, and it looks the best of the three in my opinion.

 

No way, TWM is way sexy

 

any one have pics of a TWM gunmetal shift knob installed

 

imo hurst is probably the best company when it comes to short shifters, but for our car i'd go with twm.

 

Awesome reviews and even some pics so far! Thanks guys! I def like the look of the HURST the best but the TWM looks good too.....I think I'd rather get the gunmetal look though! PIC PIC PIC!?! I live in TX...that f*cker is gonna be so hot to the touch.....

 

thats the only downside to metal ***** the shift pattern gets burned in youre hand

 

shift pattern gets burned into your hand FTL!** HA

 

I got a Hurst for my 08 TC and i love it. I think it looks great too.

 

I wish there were some non-huge bearing ball options for the shift knob. They never feel right. Non-ergonomical as sh*t!
