Ok I'll start. Axial flow Short shifter I love the throw and feel, I still have the oem knob and I think it's perfect as is. I had a little trouble with it popping out of second and forth at first but seems fine now.

 

i heart my AxialFlow as well. it rattles with my superlight titanium Alex knob, but the feel is awesome. the rattle bothered me at first but i love the feel so much that it doesn't matter to me anymore. with my countersunk knob, the throws are SO short. i think the only other short shifter for our car is the C's short shifter (i think from Japan, Bulletproof sells it). but that one is made to retain stock shifter height while shortening the throw. i prefer the look of a shorter shifter.

 

had an axial SS matched with countersunk knobs (voodoo, t1r, arc). it was too short. missed gears time to time. this is when i realized too short can't be the best. stock shifter with maybe 1/4" cut off matched with voodoo knob IMO is perfection.

 

I had a Hurst short shifter in my '97 Wrangler and it made about a 40% difference.

For me, the S2K stock shifter with my countersunk knob is just

 

shorter = better
