Get a short throw shifter. SharkRacing has a good one for less than $200 or you can probably find a B&M for around that. I've had both, and actually liked the SR better, but you will definitely like a STS.

lol iv tried xbox 360.. lol haha that wont work.. mom said it would effect grades 2 much.. but i have a hunch she might surprise me n e way.. on top of wut i ask for

Definitely a shortshifter. Once you get that bad boy you'll be glad you got rid of that dildo hyundai calls a shifter. I have an Ark and i'm pretty happy with it though i wish it was a bit shorter. Basstib also makes STS that are good, and are pretty damn short.

After buying the STS you might still have enough to pick up a box of rubber knobcaps from costcos seeing as fornication is not a bad idea too.

Also, i don't think you need the Weapon-R damper yet, though they're great products. You can get that later. :)
 
#16 ·
yea but if i get it later i will have to pay full price.. that my problem.. cause the 110 dollar speical ends when everyone orders the last 15

lol id get new headlights before hids... my headlights are junk! they are soo foggy.. cept i figured out that that new turtle wax ICE sutff works GREAT to cover it up and make them look 95% better and it stays on longer than plastX
 
#21 ·
headlights are way 2 much tho :(... ill get them over the summer tho when i get out of school and actually work weekdays again
 
#22 ·
Dude STS ftw. Basstib sells awesome ones for like 120$! so you still get 80$ left over to spend on some MidnightWolf goodies. See? who said you can't have your cake and eat it too? ;)

how can i contact basstib.. and he sells 6 spd ones 2.. lol cause i might have to do that.. lol cause i really like mid-nite wolf stuff

Edit: i just looked at his thread he posted and nobody has got one for like 5 months now.. and people said that he doesnt respond to pms much.. lol so i will probly spend the extra money on something i know i will get

itll cost me 214 bucks including shipping and shift nob for a ark STS.... shark racing has one for 190 including shipping and shift nob.. if i got one which one should i get?

I have no experience with the ARK shifter, but their products are good and 199 is a good price. I liked my SharkRacing STS because it was very crisp and required minimum effort. It just clicked through the gears with a flick of the wrist, My B&M is very solid, but requires more effort and is more difficult to get into reverse and when going from 6th to 1st when stopped it sometimes goes to 3rd instead. I've heard stories about SR delays, but everything I've ordered from them was delivered promptly. And I agree, use your stock knob.

tell you what buddy, for $75.00 and your old headlights i will send you my CLEARCORNERED ones

naw ill pass... im saving for the SFR ones.. thanks tho

Damn, i didn't know Basstib stopped selling. Thanks for clearing that up C Mau.

I vote for the Ark ones, since i've heard some nasty feedback about shark racing's shipping. Plus, i've tried the Ark STS and it's quality/fitment is great. If you wan't to save money, don't get a knob with the Ark one. Just use your stock knob, the included knob doesn't have a nice feel to it IMO. That should drop the price a bit.
