The **** is lower. I like the way it shifts.

Yes it is the green one on eBay.

Default how much lower?

Any idea approx how much lower is the shift **** compared to OEM?
Does the shifter accept the oem shift ****, and if so are you running the oem **** on yours, or an aftermarket?

Also does the shifter shorten the throw by moving the pivot point up, or is it basically just a shorter handle with a new base? If they move the pivot point up, do they also lengthen the arm for the crossover cable to narrow the shiftgate?

I suppose I should probably just order one and find out but I just bought wheels for the car and now have to spend a couple hundred to replace a fender and bumper cover from some parking-lot hit and run POS, so it might be a while before I can justify spending money on non-essentuals for the car again.

If you use the OEM **** it is alot lower. I am using a MOMO know which brought it up.

It does shorten the throw some.

Has anyone actually measured how much higher the Pivot Point is ?? By raising the Pivot Point & lenghtening the lower end, the throw shortens proportionally.
