TWM Short Shifter
I just finished installation of a TWM Short Shifter, weighted Shift Knob, Cable and Base Bushings and what a difference! Could not be any happier wth the notchy in a good way feel of the shifter!

Add an extension and you're all set.

yeah, I think I will eventually go with your 3" shift extension but I just love the look and the feel now so I'm sort of torn.

looks nice, I should do that soon.
Does one need the extension with the Micro Image shift kit? |

^ You don't 'need' it. It's a personal choice where you want your shift knob to sit with respect to height. I like a shorter, crisper throw, but higher, because I find myself reaching for the knob at stock height.
This is especially true at the track. We have 2" and 3" extensions available.

I'm not really sure, I am curious myself. I would give customer service a call as they are not always on top of email from my past experience.

The cage might be different between the two specs. I have a JDM short shifter I've never installed. I'll have to compare it to the USDM one in my car.

i dont really like having the TRD quickshift together with the new in-engine shifter. Even with the shifter cable bracket installed, it still too stiff to shift for my liking. The TRD quickshift knob is also way too light, so i'm already changed back to stock. I would give the TWM short shifter a try tho |
