hes not saying its a twm, hes saying he has one and you should buy it.

trd doesnt always = better. all youre buying is the name trd.

I wouldn't say that's necessarily true. Sure some TRD products are rebadged versions of other manufacturers products, but I think the TRD folks are going to know what is best for the tC.

Now, dont take this the wrong way, and i mean dont take offense, but i have got to say:

DONT MODIFY YOUR CAR IF YOUR AFRAID OF THINGS GOING WRONG!

If your afraid od modifing your car, things will go wrong whether your buy with TRD products, or other BRAND products. Do you think that TRD warranty will be there forever? NOPE! So then what?

Just like someone else said earlier, TRD is all your paying for. ANd i can also assure you that the trd shifter is no were near made by TWM. I have the TWM stage 2 now, and i have had it installed 25 k miles ago. STILL like the day i bought it and no problems.

All im saying bro is to read the goods and bads about everyones expieriences with all products your looking to buy. Good luck with whatever decision you make.

kind of looks like a shifter adaptor. Like this DC Sports 1

From what I read, the left to right motion is not reduced, just the throws.
