Just got my Voodoo.. and i have to admit, i like it alot! feels great compared to the stock ****

 

I had one of those in my old Miata. Very nice **** indeed. The Miata guys go nuts for the Voodoo *****. If my rotory shaped **** wasn't so darn pretty, I would get one of these too.

 

The only problem with my Voodoo **** is that it made the vinyl shift boot look like crap so I had to buy a leather one!

 

i like the round shapped gear *****. does it get hot after a while? especially parked under the sun after a period of time?

 

Is that thing screwed down all the way? Thats a big gap with the boot.

I have one of these, not the magnum size just regular, and I actually switched back to the stock **** yesterday. I don't know if it was the lighter weight or what, but I've found the stock one really shifts smoother b/c its heavier. Also, the voodoo **** transmits ALOT more tranny noise, especially with the AFE shifter. Even after RP fluid it allowed tons of noise and whine. It does kind of suck in really cold weather too.

I hope you like yours though

 

I have the same **** and I love it!!! You get a better feel for the shifter. The stock one is great. Feels good, but feels softer. Personal preference . . . . .

 

i have the same voodoo but with piano black. it screws down further than oem ****.

 

Yeah, I think the ergonomics are better with the voodoo, but for me I think it is too light and too loud. I guess it changes the leverage point too b/c it is shorter than stock and that changes the shift feel and shift action. Well crafted piece though.

 

I was going to say that mine is much lower down but I have AFE SS.

 

it's a STS, not a SS. The height is almost the same.

 

too big and round. looks like one of those electric ball things. and i think more circles make that area too circular.

 

Your shift **** has nothing on this one!

holy crap, that bently **** is bling'in!





wierd thing is that is as far as my **** can be screwed down... does anyone else have this issue?

 

for that price id rather buy 3 cars than one shift ****

 

No, in fact my **** touches the boot long before the **** is screwed all the way in.

It looks like your boot is just saggy. Do you have the green foam stuff on the inside of the boot still? I assume you have it there... try removing the **** and pulling the boot up.

I don't have the foam, and it still doesn't sag this much.

 

Compare for yourself...
Mine has AFE, stock boot in this picture and no green fuzzy thing under the boot.

 

I have both shifters and I have the voodoo ****. The height is not an issue. It really looks like his **** isn't screwed all the way down.

 

< polish black, just that alone makes me love driving my 8 more.

 

ps are you sure you got the right threads? mine goes ALL the way down... actually when pushing down to put it in reverse the navi buttons tend to get in the way sometimes because its that low.. but no biggie for me i dont mind.

 

I just put my piano black voodoo **** on this weekend. I have no gap between the boot and the ****.

 

i have the spun aluminum ****, for now, and it screws all the way down. I have not noticed the extra noise from it, but it has been a long time since I had the stock ****. I have grown a little tired of the temperature swings on this ***** surface though. it gets hot in the summer, and really cold in the winter. no matter what I do to cover it, shade it, nothing works. I have ordered the MS ****, should be here this week.

 

hmm.. yup im pretty sure mine is screwed all the way down... i'll have to unscrew it and take a look at it again.

thanks for the comparison pics.

 

and that is why I don't have leather seats. took a while to find my car since I did not want them. I bet they get really hot in Australia.

 

lol just found out that my boot is just funky.. it concaves in so it doesnt touch the ****. i pulled it up and reformed it to fit, not it looks decent and not so much ghetto lol
