Had my stock shifter cut down 1.5 inches..

[RED 97 GTS]

I wanted to keep my stock blue shifter but hated how long it was. So took it in to work had it put on a lathe cut it down then had it welded back together. Can't even tell it's been welded above the groove for the boot.

How does it drive now?

Better,........... or do you regret cutting it?

No regrets. It's way better Little shorter imo

I did the same to mine, although I didn't weld anything. I just cut off about a inch, then machined off the other areas to match the OEM piece. Throws are shorter, but do require a bit more effort. I did this mod for aesthetics and not a performance reason. Plus, my OEM one was a little too abused if you see if carefully on the second picture.

There is a company that offers a shorter version if you don't want to do it yourself. I bought one from them around 5-6 years ago. A search on the site should pull up their name I would suspect.
