You are right, he wants opinions. Both shifters cost the same amount before S/H. So how is the RSA more expensive than the other? Simple fact. If you don't want idiotic responces to idiotic things in your posts, don't post them. You say one is expensive and useless and the other one isn't. They cost the same, have different features. Simple.

I don't understand how you can have your seat in a pretty much normal position but still be "Leaning back". Like George Carlin said, "how can you have your seatback forward? It's physicaly impossible!"

Again, I've had both of them, I did sell my B&M for $80 bucks. I've heard one complaint about the RSA, and it wasn't from the 19 of them I setup in the GB we just had.

Regardless, look at the facts OP, and pick the one that suits you best. OR, get inside and try each one out for yourself, and pick from there. That'd be the smart choice.

*EDIT*

I didn't call you an idiot 5ly, I asked you if you were a "FRICKIN IDIOT".

 

I thought double posting was 2 posts in a row :S
guess im am an idiot and i should go back to scool huh? nuff said on this topic for me......

 

You did double post, I fixed it.

You aren't an idiot. Just learning like the rest of us.

Point taken and closed.

 

hmmm, $135 for the Rside eh? REDZ if that is what the price is i will MORE than gladly pick up the RSide... if its as good as you say it is, and you are the Tib "expert" i may just take your word for it and buy one

 

damn! no flames are needed guys! i just wanted some opinions and everyone is welcome to share what they know and how they feel!

im probably gonna end up gettin RSIDE shifter smile.gif

Thanx for all the replies!!

 

Remember these few things guys, I'm not an expert, I just learn stuff and remember as much as I can.

2. I don't make any money from Kspec.com, yet.

3. Consider #2 with the fact that I already had a B&M. A few other guys got the RSA, and I got to check out David's RSA when I was in Korea.

 

i did a review on the HVE short shifter if your interested... >>> Review section.

 

I just got my RSA in the mail today, I'll post up my opinion on it later once I install it. I feel I can relate to the everyday driver as that's what I am. I don't mod my car, I like things to be functional, yet practical, and look at things like how far I have to reach for it, etc...

I won't sacrifice everyday drivability for a shorter throw.

 

well, let us know!

 

The verdict is, I don't like it. It does hit the shifter surround a little, nothing to worry about though. It does NOT put it out of reach for the average driver. I'm 5'10"ish and I sit with the seat so when the clutch is to the floor my leg is 97 percent extended. The cupholder is an issue, and since I drink coffee and get a soda on my lunch, it's an issue I'm not going to compromise with. Other than that, it feels great, shifts smooth and just feels better than stock, but I'm not really that disappointed with stock. If anyone wants it, it's the same price as K-Spec sells it for. $135 shipped in the US, only benefit is you'll prolly get it quicker from me.

I'll prolly start a for sale thread later.
