[QUOTE="Mr. Jack, post: 1425302, member: 16353"] Hey guys... Let me start off by saying I've had my Sonic Blue Cobra for about a week and I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by this car. My previous car was an 02 GT. It was actually my first manual tranny car and I loved it right off the bat. After a while, I started reading the forums and I heard every one rave about the Pro 5.0 and Tri-ax being so much better than the stock shifter. I went out and purchased a Pro 5.0 and it was one of the best mods that I ever made. I loved that positive, mechanical feel. Anyways, when I got my Cobra I decided to give the stocker a try. It felt better than my GT did when it was stock. But after driving for a week, I realized that I was missing shifts. I am not even talking about WOT shifts....I'm talking about putting the thing in 5th gear. It may be because I am a crap-ass driver, but man it seems to me this thing is vague and sloppy. I like to move the shifter side to side to make sure that I am in neutral (something that was really easy with the Pro 5.0). It seems that even THAT doesn't feel smooth on the stocker. Oh well...sorry about this long diatribe. The only question is whether to go with the Steeda or the Pro 5.0... :-D [/QUOTE]
