im still deciding between TWM and CC...but how short is the TWM shifter? i know its about a 2.5 drop from stock..but do you have to lean forward just to get to it? or is it pretty comfortable?

Feels comfortable for me and my fiance agrees as well. My boy Clayton has the CC one. it's a knock-off version of TWM's but I'm not sure which Stage. However, I don't like knock-offs, so I go for the authentic version.

i just put mine in today after having it for nearly 3 months. that side washer is a real pain in the ___, use the dremel and save urself alot of time. shifts feel good to me nice short and firm. no extra force needed to shift. great product.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the great reviews! The feedback we get from the Scion tC short shifter is overwhelmingly positive, and it is certainly one of my favorite products as well. Don't forget about our shift *****, they're currently discounted if you buy one with the short shifter. Here's some pics of the *****, from left to right they are the Type R, Classic, M1 Abrams, and the A6 Leopard.

No it's not true...it's an estimate, and an incorrect one at that. The height is the same but the throw percentages are correct on the sticky. My buddy and i compared ours...he has CC and i have the TWM stage 2 and they are the same height.

i love my CC shifter, couldn't go wrong for $70 with a shift ****. the shift **** resembles that of the Type-R style and is stainless steel. it's very nice for the money so if you don't feel like spending over at least twice as much for just a shifter, just go with CC, you'll love either one though.

ok... i would give it up for half the world.. or just america itself.. and then get a hold of one...
cc is good... hear nothing but good things...
i mean... it's a piece of metal... and some people are on a budget.. no need to offend them.. or say something like that.
