hey thanks johnkb8 for postin my pics in the thread i would have posted myself but no premo membership kudos to john!

 

WOW!!!!!!thats awesome!

 

Congrats!

 

do any of these come with the polished look? or are they all gunmetal??

 

Well when I bout mine it did not give me a choice so for my sake I hope they are all gunmetal for now because that is what I want. I am sure in the future they will give a choice do to all the guys that seem to want the polished shifter.

 

1 pt number all GM

 

any hints on how to unhook the shift cable connector once i shift into fourth? I am gonna finish up the install at lunch

 

oh snap. I'm getting the hurst equiped emblem when i get my shifter. ridin old skool.

 

ya hold the shifter use a long screwdriver and pry down evenly by the connector. Keep pressure even and not sharp....

BTW...

Already ordered!

 

who has it in stock

 

how is the reverse lock out treating you? or anyone else who has installed it

 

Aaron from Turbo Tech told me that they don't have them in stock yet but if you place the order through them they will put your order in and it will get shipped straight to you from hurst.

 

Reverse lock out doesnt work and 5th gear is hard to find. fells like the shifter moves over too far and wont go in 5th.

 

dont just push it all the way right to go into 5th, just follow the normal flow from 2-3 and 4-5

I contacted the Hurst Manager of development about the lockout, he is supposed to get back to me on it.

not worried myself, it is a nice shifter and as long as you dont go all the way right there is no chance of going into R by accident

 

Mine fells like it keeps hanging up, cant find a happy medium. I also talked to tech department and they said they would get back to me.

 

no hang ups here! Mine couldnt be smoother! Matter of fact it got easier to shift thanks to the shifter weighting

 

no lock out problems for me, yes i do agree 5th was a little weird at first but not that bad after all

 

hey man you got yours from that ebay company right and you got this sticker with it?

 

Man, I think I might want to get that thing! I like B&M, don't get me wrong, I like my B&M shifter but if Hurst makes a better shifter, well...

 

Man i've been waiting for this too long!!!! Hurst here I come

 

so you can only put it in reverse by pulling up on the lockout? See if you can go into reverse without lifting it.

 

So my shifter is coming today, should I put it in or give Hurst a call and see if they have any fixes coming out? Has anyone heard anything from Hurst?

 

yep, i can NOT put it into reverse unless i pull up the lock out........no problems with this shifter!!

 

mcz, what year is your car?

so far a lot of guys are able to put it in reverse without using the collar? Have you tried without?

hmmmm....

 

Well the shifter just has a little edge that sticks out and the shifter mount has another edge so the shifter just barely won't clear unless you pull it up, I can see how over several months of driving the ledge could be worn down enough for the shifter to clear without pulling it up.
