Did you just get the shift knob, or did you get the entire m g w shifter?

+1 ... If that is just the shift knob - I may go that route instead of an entire mgw shifter

So, you don't have the MGW short shifter installed? Just a shorter shaft & shift knob?

Yes as shown in picture on right.

Awesome ...

Perhaps I'm blind, but I can't find either ... The knob nor shaft on MGW's site? Where did you happen to get it?

If you want a really positive shifting experience order the MGW shift mechanism from Mark J at Woodhouse. Way better than the stock shifter especially when coupled with the shorter shift knob.

that is slick!

Another Ontarian!

Have we met? Are you a member of the Ontario Chapter? Do you attend any VCA events? Whats the car details?

Sorry to highjack the thread..... Not often I see fellow Ontario people here......

 

[Wiretech]

Hey Robert! how are you, We already met at Spring Fling 2012 the only blue viper that won the trophy . It's nice to hear from another Ontarian.

Oh poop! It's YOU!

IMO, the improvement in shifting comes 90% from the shift mechanism and 10% from the length of the shaft. With the stock shifter, missed shifts were maybe not common, but they happened. Since I installed the new shifter, I've yet to miss the gear I was going for. It's like you can sort of feel where you are in the "H" pattern, and I didn't get this from the stock shifter setup.

Installing this mech isn't that bad if you want to DIY. Consider it a good time to also replace the lower rubber boot (which on mine was complete toast) and install a skip-shift eliminator, if you haven't already.
