Are they really being shipped? The web site still says "*This item is currently on order, and will be available soon. You can either order it now and we will ship it as soon as it is in stock, or submit your email and we will notify you when it becomes available."

Yeah i spoke to the owner of TWM today there shipping out to vendors today.So if you want to assure yourself having one i would order it now. Just like the AEM CAI they will be in high demand.

Wow - a 2" reduction in height ? Looking at the shifter now, that puts the knob bottom down just about even with the the console. I was thinking of maybe a 1/2" or 3/4" drop... 2" seems waaay too low...

twm is the shortest shifter your gonna find, they're insane, I have one on my mp3 as well, I would recommend you get a new knob that's heavy, I'm not sure if the mz3 knob is heavy to begin with, but if its not, you'll find you have to push a little harder to shift, nothing major, just a little easier with a heavier knob

Ok first i will tell you with absolutely no bias that this SS is Great! Smooth as stock,and to go out on a limb maybe even smoother. The install on this was a 2 on a scale from 1-10. Comlete digital pics of install to come tomorrow, file is very large! The addition of the Twm shift knob with it's added weight makes shifting no longer "Rowing the Boat", but easy as it heavily weighted.The whole kit is made of great quality material ,and the craftsmanship is first class. If any one doubts my word on this if you live close i would be happy to let you drive my car PM me! The other alternative would be to order it yourself to find out. Here are pics taken with a borrowed digi i will take more with mine tomorrow.

Is that adjustable knob any heavier than the stock one? I know the stock one is pretty heavy itself.

Description on Ptuning:
TWM Performance Adjustable Shift Knob:
• The first height adjustable shift knob on the market allows you to raise or lower your knob height to your preference.
• Sized to fit over the stock or TWM Performance shifters so you don't have to deal with sloppy plastic cups or knobs that rotate or don't stay on.
• Weighted to increase shifter momentum and decrease the amount of effort needed to shift as well as provide a smoother shift action.
• Extremely smooth and clean styling offers a timeless and classy look to your interior.
• Super tough, scratch resistant stainless steel construction stands up far better than anodized aluminum or leather wrapped knobs.
LIFETIME WARRANTY.
Price: $75.95 with forum discount
I would think a stainless steel knob would be substantially heavier than the stock one.

The TWM knob is much heavier than the stock one. But you cant tell that once it's attached to the shifter.

That's just for the knob, not the shifter.

Yeah it will void warranty on your shifter, but you have replaced it with hopefully a far better one. You will be fine I doubt they would even notice it.
