Anyone have TWM short shifter?

anyone have TWM short shifter? how does it feel and function? i wanna get one if its good.

Twm

I have one and love it.

The TWM shifter's lower extension is 0.4" longer than stock to reduce throw, and is 3.5" shorter than stock...A bit low for my height (6'1&quot. For better reach and feel, I installed the knob on a bolt welded to a nut to add back 1.5" in height, for a resulting 2" drop and a great improvement over stock.

I have and love it, but it took about two weeks for me to get use to it since it is pretty short for me..,I'm like 5'3".

Where did you get it from? I want one..

How was the installation?

im orderin one today hopefully....i want the knob but i dont wanna shell out an additional 80 bucks for it

I put a Celica knob on mine..it was cheap.

The thread said "anyone HAVE a TWM shortshifter", not is anyone thinking about buying one? Just post that here for no reason at all thanks.

I have one...I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

......

uhhh, you didnt have to bitch at me for it. a simple "hey, just for next time dont post stuff like that" would have worked fine. i dont see why what i said compelled you to post what you posted.

There was nothing wrong with your post, exolyte...
Those TWM knobs look really cool for $10 less on the shifter/knob package, and are actually made of billet aluminum. They don't look very anatomical though and wouldn't be as comfortable as our stock vinyl knob, especially in cold weather...
Check out these great new TRD Japan black or white Duracon shift knob for $60 shipped! Light bulb shaped and made from duracon acetal copolymers, they come with two silver and black shift-pattern labels featuring a TRD Racing Development logo for Toyotas with a manual 5-speed or 6-speed.

those of you with 03+, was it hard to install the twm shifter? did it come with everything u need?
did u have to adjust anything at all?

for those who installed...what kind of grease did you use?

That's what she said!!!

dammit james, i was planning a little back to get the Grex knob too... how much did u get the grex knob for and where? cause on ebay theres this guy arcticblueinteg or something like that, he dont respond his emails so i dont know if i should get from him or not.

It wasn't so bad... No adjustment is required, and it came complete with replacement clip. The hardest part was prying the teflon cap holding the shifter to the teflon base with a couple large standard screwdrivers, then snapping it back down with large hammer and flat piece of wood. I used Amsoil synthetic grease. Any good automotive grease will work.
The Nismo Duralumin (lightweight aluminum alloy) knob https://www.1stnissanparts.com/cata...9f62fdbf894d788 does looks similar to TRD'S Duracon knob but is flared out at bottom...

Yeah it comes with everything except for the grease....I just wiped off the old grease and put threw it on the new shifter.

wow, that is short

James -- is that the stock boot/fitting? I just installed a leather boot in my car (CE), and it doesn't fit as well as yours..

hay james since your not using that twm knob would you like to sell it?

oh never mind i didnt read the captions

they dont necessarily come with TWM knob. that package costs a good 70 bucks more.

for grease does vaseline work?
