Default Which Shifter

I have a M6 with the OEM shifter. I have been looking at the Pro 5.0, B&M Ripper and the Hurst. What are you guys running out ther and how do you like it. Any feed back is welcome. Thanks

I run a Pro 5.0 with a LSS and love it. FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD they say the Pro 50 is more appreciated by drag racers and the B&M is more liked by road/autocross racers. I doubt either way you could go wrong.

I doubt you'll go wrong with either one. I can only comment on the 5.0 though. It's very knotchy at first, but that will disapate a little with use. The stick has plenty of thread on it and you can cut it down over an inch, so you may not need to buy a short stick for it.

I love my Pro 5.0!

I have the factory Hurst and the LSS(Lou's Short Stick) also and love it. Never had a problem with it.

I've got a Hurst chrome handle. Wouldn't buy any other shifter. It looks good, feels good, and gets rid of that damn baseball shift ****.

Just ordered the 5.0 did have a stock husrt and LSS. I like the feel of the 5.0 I had in my other Z.
