Default For the GTO guys, JHP Pro Billet shifter review

NEW PART DAY!!!




$500 was a LOT of money for me but now that I have it, it's freakin worth every penny. It's heavy duty and the throws are extremely short. It'll be on the car Monday so I'll have a driving review of it then!

500 for a shifter is rediculous. I couldnt imagine dropping that kind of coin on one.

It was a lot of money but damn is it a night and day difference. The shifter is so tight that side to side play is minimal. That also might have something to do with the springs being so tight (leaving it in reverse is supposed to soften them up) but it was difficult to tell which gear I was going into. Again, I'm used to the stock shifter and I'm sure the springs will soften up. Also, the throw is much shorter than I expected. I have the handle on the stock setting, and it literally feels like you move the shifter one inch, 2 clicks and it's there. I'm used to the long *** throw of the stock shifter where you actually had to push it up or down INTO gear.

Awesome shifter, amazing HD quality, price is still a bit hefty
