Default Sparco shift **** ...opinions on this pic

So I've been thinking of getting this shift ****. I like the looks a lot and I seem to remember seeing a pic of it on here in the past. Does anyone have this so you can tell me about how the shifting feels with it? Excessive rattle or anything? Install difficult, fitment? Thanks!

I have that same shift **** basically, I have the speed, a bit longer. i love it, good feel, I don't recomend that smaller one as wouldn't be enough weight (that is my preference though)

Why do you say it wouldn't be enough weight? I would think its no less than some titanium *****. Does yours rattle any more than stock?

Rattle more...Nope...quite the opposite, all the rattle is gone, I removed the plastic gromet under the boot and isntalled my ****, I'll take a pic tomorrow of my set up. Very clean looking and btw I am sparcos whor@ I have Sparco Torinos, Shift ****, Brackets, on order, E-brake, and steering wheel and it is already very clean looking. G'luck if you need sparco gear check out www.surgestreetshop.com good stuff.

Steering wheel is coming from Sparco's new line, not released yet so it will be a few months before I have it. I don't document my modding, even though I do quite a bit each week, figure I'll through it all up together. But I'll snap some pics for ya

I ordered it last night. It's already shipped out so i'm assuming it'll be here along with my new ebrake and shift boots by the end of the week. I'll get pics up asap.
