Any unwanted Ripshifters floating around?

[Superhans_]

Monkfish have put their price up recently. Are there any spare ones about?

Damn, I almost bought one back in April, should have pulled the trigger.

They do a cheaper alternative though

I got the CUBE shifter, it's a knockoff of the race version of the GMM. It's not without issues, but I still think it was a good buy.

e: possibly worth adding I modified the white boot thing so you could install it from inside the car (drilled through the captive bolts and riv-nutted the holes in the tunnel). I also put some slightly beefier springs in the shifter to help centring, although it still doesn't centre perfectly.

Whilst more expensive, the Sikky or JHP shifters look a better job than the big bendy ripshifters

There's also the new Hinson shifter to consider.

I dont really get the Hype about it. It looks exactly the same as the old Holley shifter....except it costs more and is black.

And for a Monaro, would still use a bendy stick.

eg, cheaper version...looks same as Hinson to me

The Sikky in particular does look very well made...I suppose it just comes down to if you want multiple joints.

The Sikky does look very nice, although the JHP perhaps more robust.

I think I'd prefer the multiple joints as it would leave the stick operating almost upright, instead of the big dogleg where the stick ends up moving up/down through the gate.

B&M shifters tend to break... You're better off getting a GMM ripshift.

i had them on both cars and no issues current one has been on for about 5 years or so
