Voodoo shift ****
I don't know if this is the right section or no, but anyone here uses the Voodoo shift ****?http://www.ricks2k.com/products/othershiftknob.php they are popular in s2000 crowd but i don't know about 350Z. I just got my Z last week and looking for a good shifter. I have looked into the Nismo Titanium but paying 120+ is a bit too much IMO. I saw some pics of the Forged THX shifter and i am highly interested in that too. But I dont' think I can buy that brand new since they discontinued. I would like a nice shifter (no cf) for around 40-60 bucks or even more if the quality is right. Can someone help me find one?

How does it compares to nismo or other shifter (i.e. forged thx etc) ? thanks

Well the only other one that i've tried is the chrome nismo one, it felt nice but i prefer round shift *****. I would recommend either one, depending on what you prefer, round ball or stick. The nismo did give better grip when really ripping through the gears.

I Like the Voodoo shift **** I have a short shifter with this on it and makes it REAL short. The width of the **** fits good in the palm of my hand. I dont have to grip in hard to shift like the stocker.
The only down side is I have to carry a micro fiber sunglasses case in the car to cover the **** to keep the heat down. Thats the only down side and thats manageable.

Thanks guys for the inputs.
The price is really good that's why I wanted to give this a try. My friend has the same in his S2000. I will go with voodoo, thanks.

I think one advantage of the voodoo is that it is weighted which makes shifting easier compared to a very light ****; which I would assume the nismo Ti **** would be

Ok I have just put the voodoo **** on and throws are def. shorter than before. I like it. But as I have anticipated, there's a little gap between the shift **** and the leather housing. I have already ordered the round ring from Zeetoys http://www.zeetoyz.com/shiftknobfinisher.htm. How about you guys post some pictures of your voodoo shift ****. This way I can see how yours look compare to mine. thanks

I have the spun aluminum, matches the interior perfect, has random scratches on it though, and I have no idea where they came from...so I'm assuming it scratches rather easily or something, other then that I love it, I put the home depot ballcock thingy on it as a finisher...

The finish is very nice. I got the spun. It really makes the throws shorter. I can only imagine how short it would be if i wanna install a short shifter kit in the summer......
