i have the twm short shifter on my car. its a good shifter. twm is known for having high quality parts. install was pretty easy and straight forward and the shifts feel real solid. shifter height isnt changed too much... but it does eliminate a little bit of the shifter rattle.

Yes, it's great, although I would suggest pairing it with a 600g knob.

I have the TWM short shifter, TWM 600g adjustable-height knob and they work great. The only problem is me shifting into 5th a lot when I meant to go into 3rd.

I just bought a used one two days ago from a forum member. I have heard lots of good things - primarily that it is hands down better than the other aftermarket short shifters out there. The guy I bought it from had the B&M prior and said the improvement was vast when he changed it out for the TWM. I am looking forward to installing it this weekend. I already have the TWM Desert Eagle shift knob which should pair great

I have the TWM shifter too. Works great.

On the install. Be careful of the white plastic cup that the shifter sits in. You have to remove it from the old shifter and install it on the new one. The fingers on it can break. If they do. You have to buy the whole factory shifter assy just to get the white plastic cup. Don't ask me how I know. And use white lithium grease on it.
