Default Shift ****

Ok, my car has a shortned stick and the stock hurst shifter and shift ****. With it being shorter now the stock **** doesn't feel very good to shift with. What would everyone recomend? Right now its between the Black Hurst Classic 6spd and the MBA plain aluminum. Any suggestions?

I would personally prefer a black one in my interior but that's just me. Alluminum would just look out of place to me. It's all up to you though.

Does the black hurst have any weight behind it?

I've used 4 different *****, and I have the T-Handle on right now. But for what it's worth, if you're using a shortened arm, use a Leather hurst **** or the Hurst Classic, but I think you'd like the leather shifter better.

I disagree. I had one of those in my car and couldn't stand it. In the summer it got hot enough to brand "HURST" into your palm and I always found it ackward. I replaced it with a standard leather Hurst **** that I got from WS6store and I love it.

Between the two ***** you asked about I would probably go with the classic Hurst.
