Hurst Pistol Grip

[RenegadeEngr]

Alright, so after watching Kowalski rip up the Challenger (not Charger, my mistake) in Vanishing Point (1971 for all us youngins) a buddy talked me into trying out the pistol grip. Advance Auto had one in stock and I gave er' a try. I had previously installed an eBay short throw kit (needed some work) and lowered the throw even further. With the pistol grip installed it has transformed this vehicle into whole new animal. I highly recommend it, and now my 70's Corvette buddy can't rip off the damn shift knob slammin gears in my ride...We thought the Hurst would melt when it was in sight of a german automobile, but they have been getting along quite well...

Hey, you must be mistaken, its a ::white:: Challenger.

[reefer_bob]

oh dear lord... make the pain stop.

WTF was wrong with your shifter that your buddy was ripping your knob off? something sounds wrong there.

Oh, and yea, that looks like complete ass.

[NoLeafClover]

i would put back stock or something round at least i dont think it looks in place. just my o2

[Blue_S4]

[b5s4tt]

Looks good. It would also look good black

[jblinga]

Wow!! All you need now is a mullet to complete the redneck factor!!

Yulp, it definitely needs to be black....That is next on the task list...

[SeattleS4]

I like it.

Black, or wrapped in black leather would be sweet too.

blasphamous

Now just add a CB and some Cragars and you'll be all set.

[JaredVL]

I am pretty sure...

wait, let me lift up my laptop and check again...

ahh yup i was right

I just came.

[S4tranquility]

That S4 is crying on the inside. Can you perform barrel rolls with that thing?

my question is y do u let your buddy beat on your car?? you know these cars are not cheap to fix right? anyways good idea for road racing or w/e u want to do just not practical on daily driving it doesnt flow with the car or belong.

some people arent in their 20s.

on another note: hahahahahhaa what a great idea.

[RolledMySTi]

I like it. Although it looks like something that would motivate me to abuse my transmission.

i ripped the stock knob off several times myself. the ball slides off the plastic 2-piece cylinder.

looks good..but i prefer a slight 'over the top' grip.. i think the pistol grip would get tiresome at the angle you have to grip it.

Belongs in a Camaro...I am speachless at this point

It works quite well, its a great addition and functionality wise its quite efficient. It may be a little out of place but it's a bit different than what you would normally see. What do I know, I'm just a mechanical engineer who designs these sorts of systems and vehicles. Thanks for all the responses.....I'm interested to see if anyone else tries it.

Hey man...prop on being original. I like the idea of wrapping it in leather. Not my thing personally, but hell, you gotta admit its different

<Disclaimer> I'm all about being different & trying new things...

..but are u serious. Forget the aesthetics, our trannies are not designed to bang through the gears like these shifters promote. I shift pretty quick for normal street driving & I usually don't have more than 2 fingers on the knob.

Is this really what this place turned into?
