Cosmo Racing short shifter

[Al_S14]

Just wanted to coment on one of most expensive ebay BM knockoff shifters. I ordered it directly from their site not ebay and it was sent out next day. These guys are from canada and still got it in just 4 days. They even included instructions with pictures...not that i needed it but is still very nice of them. Fit perfectly and made an amazing difference. Its only been 4 days and i am still grining every time i get in the car. Only bad thing is that it rattles little bit at certain rpm...not sure what exactly since there is absolutely no play in it. Heard that BM does that also. Must be one of the return springs or something that sort. Well worth 60 bucks and from what i can remember does not feel any different then OBX or BM shifters.

2. you cant compare the B&M to the OBX because they are COMPLETELY different.
3. Most of us are not open to ebay products, but thanks for the addition

nice little review.

Even though i spend 200 for my B&M i wouldnt want anything else. Just my .02

i hear you if i had the money i'd get the BM ... i had it in my old car but i jsut cant swallow 200 bucks at this point :cry:

[95Blue240sx]

Yeah its understandable. Im not trying to be one of the b&m nazis. But if you like it, its all good.

I need one for my RB25, anyone know of a good one(thats not rigged to work)..I know of the Cs but they are hard to come by.

I've had that shortshifter in 2 of my cars, and the B&M on one car. And I can personally tell you that THERE ISN'T A DIFFERENCE. All of my friends have that short shifter. Never had any problem with it breaking or anything. What makes a B&M better? Is it because it has a shiny blue base? Or is it just because it's name brand? Call me cheap if you want, but, there is nothing wrong with that shifter. The throw is short, there isn't any play at all when it's in gear. So go ahead man, get it!

2) a shifter is a shifter. i had B&M and i sold it cause i needed the money after using it for one year. now im gonna get this one.
3) wrong. many are. because 240 owners are cheap.


your so wrong, that everything you posted contradicts itself :goyou:

[240silvia]

hehehe, you are right. 240 owners are cheap. They're things I don't mind paying for. Suspension, wheels, turbos..... so on. But a shifter.... lease, it's just as good. Oh, and I don't have a clue where i'd be without e-bay. I buy everything off of there. I just got a linksys 2.4 GHz Wireless Router for $15 shipped!!!!!

i almost broke down and bought this B&M copy SS....but i got lucky and came across a C's short shifter for 100 buks that was practically brand new. i heard the rattle was only with the 1st gen BMs and not the new 2nd gens...anyone kno for sure?

[SoSideways]

Just buy a louder exhaust or turn up the music if you have the shifter rattle lol

I am gonna get me one of those shifters foshos!

Your beat, nobody makes one. Nismo makes a "solid" shifter.
