Thoughts about OBX Short throw shifters

[Jimsun]

I got one off Wid@6ga last sunday and I read around how ss sometimes pop out or grind or break (it feels sturdy) etc etc. Does anyone have this setup or other ss adapter set up that isn't 4bidden or pspec (yes you know why ). I just got it installed, took it around the block and it seemed okay.

How much of a difference do you feel from stock?

Throw is about 1/5 to 1/3 less
It needs a shorter shifter and it's perfect

I forgot to say mines been going strong since I got the car man. I didn't install the obx adapter though, just the knob and cf skirt.

Hope yours works fine too.

I had a no name one on mine before. It mad e a noticeable difference, but feels alot better with an actual short shifter.

I like mine a lot. Just be sure to double check that the bolts don't loosen up on you over time. Mine loosened up a bit so I ended up tightened it down with lock tight.

Finally drove the car the first time since i have it installed. I admit it feels so much better than when i first test drove it after installation. I'd say 1/3 of the motion has been omitted. I will go check on the bolts after 7 days of driving it, then 14 days then monthly.
