dis is for da pplz with da twm short shifter. is it rite dat da shifter slants a lil diagonally? looks kinda weird. Also, i find it kinda stiff but damn da time does reduces a lot. Do you dink spraying grease to da joints of da shifter, it make a dramatic change? If not, wat else i can i do?

i thought it looked wierd too but not now...mine was really hard to shift when i put it in but after driving around a few days and making a lot of gear changes...you know, gear down to pass a car even when you really dont need too...even sitting at red lights i would take it through the gears just to loosen it up...after about 2-3 days...it is smooth as can be...very nice...love it


Perfection is 60' 6"...on the Black.

before you installed your twm ss, you should've greased the metal bearings or sprayed silicone oil on them. but after a few days it'll be all good.
