Got mine in from Z1 today!

I love my sexy polished ARC **** but it's too short and causes my hand to sometimes hit the SAFCII. I also had the ARC on my Evo 9 and it's a beautifully crafted piece but I wanted to try something new

Initial Impression: HEAVY! Heavy and more heavi-ness! lol it's definitely a rather weighty piece of metal. I haven't had a chance to drive it yet so I can't give any opinion on that until tomorrow. However, it does look sexy - but it's a different kind of sexiness...it's not as flashy and "fashionable" as the titanium polished ARC I had on prior...but for some reason the silver matches my car really well and the red turtle emblem gives it a mysterious feel I like it so far and I hope shifting will be as great as good as others raves about.

POST YOURS!

Red turtle....who doesn't love "squirt" from Finding Nemo right? lol

 

Nice, but I would rather have the SAFC mounted in the cubby (if u dont have navi) its in the way there....

 

I use my cubby... no where else to put the iphone unfortunately. I hate putting it by the cup holder because it's hard to reach. I might still relocate it but for now it looks pretty good there. We'll see...I hate the 03-05 center console but we gotta live it with

 

Pls relocate iphone, SAFC has priority inside cubby..

 

i really wanna see/feel what the rave is about with this shift ****...Read alot of reviews saying the shifting experience is one of the best but ~$200 is alot for a shift ****! One day though...

 

Nice ****

 

I swear we're true enthusiasts...how do I know? We admire a ball of metal...which I'm pretty sure is copper or brass because it's so goddamn heavy!

 

that shift **** does not look very good for $200 i got the aluminum nismo shift **** only $75 and works great.

But where did you get that carbon fiber console pieces?

 

And I bet you also have never shifted with the heibi **** it is truly worth every penny.

Man after seeing those pictures I really wish I got this instead of the Forged ****

 

It looks pretty sexy in person. And I believe most of the $250 (this **** goes normally for $230-$250) goes into the "feel" of this shift ****. I want to get out and drive but too tired today...I will report back tomorrow on the driving feedback

The carbon piece is from the entire RSW Carbon Fiber interior kit: http://www.visionaryracing.com/store...&productId=194

 

Have never tried the hiebi **** before but the Nismo **** feels great to me and there are no issues with shifting space, think it also looks better.

 

Don't get me wrong the Nismo is a nice shift **** but it's not a comparable product. I also have a problem with the Nismo because it's a stick and not a ball **** style. I don't feel comfortable with a stick style shifter. A ball **** is a lot better for me. Also, a weighted **** is a lot better for the throw. I guess it's all preference but I love the finish and feel of this ****. Can't wait to drive with it

 

I just got mine today from Z1 no pictures as of yet, but the weight and the size of the shift **** truly makes shifting effortless and very fast when it needs to be.

I used to have a Nismo stick type **** and thought the lever style was unbeatable for quick shifts, but I'm seriously impressed by the speed and accuracy that can be reached with a palm style shift with this ****, it definitely has to be its heavy ***.

 

When Z1 created the "pre-order" thread.....I was about to jump the guns but didn't b/c I have the SS ball shifter from zeetoyz (discontinued BTW) and it's great. It's heavy, bout 1 pound....TK a little bit heavier.
Anywho - I was thinking bout switching b/c I like the JDM'ness of TK
My buddy have one and I envy him

Nismo shifter - are good shifter but they're always up for sell

 

Ive had my TK **** for about 6 months now, still looks as good as the day i got it and i absolutely love it!

 

When people ask about my shift **** they wonder why the hell I paid 115 for a piece of metal haha.

Nice ****.

 

Alvin, which one did you get, the M10 or 12? and whats the difference?

 

Looks good... just dremel out the shift console and make the gauge flush w/ a reverse bracket and a few pieces of rubber trim from home depot.

 

Truly a product for the elite few

 

Just got mine today So far it feels much better then my Nismo GT, never could get use to how light the Ti Nismo was (and how it work itself loose over time)
