short throw shifter
hello,
I have a question for everybody. I have a 2001 c240 with 6-speed manual transmission. I think the shifts are too long in this car and want a short-throw shifter, but no one makes one for my car. i came across a new type of shifter that twm makes. Here is a link: http://www.twmshiftknobs.com/column/index.html
do you guys think that this will be worth it, or should I just suck it up and leave the stock shifter?
also, if anyone knows of a short throw shifter for a 2001 c240 6speed, please tell me.
Thanks
sean

Don't confuse the issue. The short throw C7/evo shifter is from 2002-2004. Same as the 'old' tranny you have.
The new tranny isn't that new . Its just a single rod shifter, and a new shifter barrel.
