Im looking to buy a after market shift **** for my 05 coupe 6mt.
I was wondering the differences between Weighted shift ***** and Non weighted.
Which one should I get?

Ive heard weighted make it funner to drive...is this true
and what are some good shift *****, my budget is up to a 100

I'm really like the Nismo carbon fiber shifterhttp://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=3270

I honestly don't think a shift ****, whether weighted or not, makes that much difference...therefore, I would just order what you think looks best.

I have a Razo 0.7lbs shift ****, and makes driving so different.
The weight allows gears to fall right in, and the shorter throw much easier, on top of being a ball ****, such natural full handed (palm) shifting.

Try this one out, you wont regret it.

Here's mine. Forged CNC SS Shift ****. $115







Best Review... If i had the money i would have bought a tommy kaira. But its hard to justify spending $200 on a ****.

But the kaira looks bad azz.

Yea I dont wanna drop 200 I'm saving for coilover. I actually like yours better, I mean the kaira looks badass but I don't really like the ball effect, yours seems perfect.

i just installed this one two days ago, weighs a little less than the oem **** but it's much smaller so the weight feels about the same...kinda hard to explain, probably just has something to do with size, density, weight proportion. the only thing i don't like about it, is 1: the carbon fiber spins freely around the shaft of the ****, fixed that with super glue. and 2: it didn't come with a rubber washer for the bottom so i'm searching for one right now. overall though, good price, good feel and looks good in the car too

Wow I LOVE THE LOOK OF IT. I love carbon fiber on the ****! IT looks like the nismo one I wanted to buy. I might order that one

Also go to home depot they will have a washer that fits, I've heard ppl have the same problem. Could you upload a pic of it in your car by any chance. on fb or on here...

Some people like the feel of weighted, some people like the feeling of unweighted. I prefer weighted based on the various cars I've driven, but it all comes down to personal preference. It's not a huge deal between the two, but I think you should get whichever one you think looks the best.
