What's the best shifter?
 
I'm in the market for a shifter as mine locked into gear today (not fun).

Many have the Tri-Ax, some have the Pro 5.0. What's the best in your opinion?

ZR 5.0 05-20-2005 04:20 PM

I've had both...............the Steeda shifter is superior in every way.

Steeda Tr-Ax. The Pro 5.0 is waaaaay to short and I dont like the handle angle.

Get the steeda!! I have one and the difference between it and the stocker is like night and day. :tup

I'm in luv with the HURST billet plus shifter unit, and it doesn't look as slapped together with a bunch of bars and bolts.
Seems like thought went into the ergonomics IMO , and it is also a true short railed shifter not just a short stick. :tup

I have heard that this shifter is really good. I have a pro 5.0 that I like very much. ?Here is a link to the new shifter.

i used to have an old school hurst. now i use a tri-ax. love it! And gets better more you use it!

I've got the B&M Pro Ripper and love it, more adjustment than most other shifters and replaceable springs to adjust firmness, makes 2-3 shift a breeze

I have had a triax, B&M, and Pro 5.0

Triax takes the cake....and we offer both Steeda and B&M

From all the reviews on the other boards I Hear that steeda is to noisey but never actually heard it myslef.. Seems liek the MGW is becoming a great one..I havent heard one bad thing abotu it yet

Funny you would say that cause my Pro 5.0 rattled like crazy.
Steve..........if your still running a T-5 my shifter may be up for grabs shortly, depends on what year car I buy. I'll let you know if ya like.

The quick and efficient fix for those running a Pro 5.0 who don't like the short handle is to swap in a Tri-ax handle. $40 :chacha:

i used a gasket instead of RTV when installing my shifter. took away alot of the noise!

Shaved03gt 05-23-2005 01:52 AM

I have had both and i love the tri-axe more. I actually broke the Pro 5.0 handle and they would not warranty it, that kind of upset me. so this time i went with the tri axe and i love it. go with tri axe, but again the new MGW is nice too.
