What 6 speed shifter are you using?
The factory 6 speed shifter is a POS.
I'm thinking about replacing it with the Hurst because the Hurst is classic and has the flat chrome stick, but also thinking about the MGW MT-82 because I like the reverse detent and I'm thinking it might be the best shifter available.
What are you folks using?

I'm willing to bet you spent $100 on some part for your car that you could have found cheaper but you just wanted what you wanted!

I watched the install video of the MGW shifter and it looks like a high quality part! I like the looks of the Hurst stick though. I wonder if you could bolt a Hurst stick to the MGW?
My factory shifter locks up going into 3rd often. I have to pull it into neutral, wiggle the stick, and then I can find 3rd gear.

Maybe it is just me, but compared to some of the shifters I have had over the years (been driving since 1974), the one in my 14 GT is great...not saying these others are not better, but if it's not broke why fix it?

From what i hear, not many drivers are having the same problems with their 14's....opposed to the previous MYs. But coming from a 13' owner, the mgw shifter helped my shifting problems alot.
