just my .02 cents

I have one and its amazing when it works, but when it fails or has issues, Cooler Worx is horrible to get a hold of. I have been having so many issues as of late and they have not responded. Its been nearly 2 months. I have a bunch of slop in the shifter and they are not responding to continued emails.

Beware buying a used model for that reason.

 

have you 3x checked your shifter cable bushings ??? And setting the adjustment bar doesn't effect the shift feedback/firmness?? I know mine was crap too UNTIL I got it setup correctly..
i appreciate the heads up though !
this was right after installation before any adjustments and you can hear it hitting the bottom shift box cover plate. I had to modify that amd dial it in..

 

Hey Adam,

I had a spring break on mine, and they sent me a repair kit 3 months after I sent the initial request.

The Spring kit they sent me was a full upright rebuild, but they provided no instructions with how to repair. I had to figure it out myself.

Once again, the spring is not functioning properly, and how I have slop in shifts even after the links are adjusted, and the adjustment bar is stuck solid with no adjustability.

Everything was lock-tighted as well.

 

I have the Coolerworx (R56) and the Cravenspeed (R60) shifters and both perform almost identically aside from looks and the hieght difference. I think the Cravenspeed makes the interior look better, especially if paired with a shift boot delete. The coolerworx gives the "racing look" but modifying the interior sucks if its not done perfect the first time...I also havent found a cover that I like yet for the left open void...I may end up going the airtech route and remove the center console completely.

With that said, I would just get the Cravenspeed Shifter, CS Metal Bushing, CS Custom Shift ****, BlackFlag Shift Boot Delete for half the price and the same throw/feel.

 

I wouldn't say they perform exactly the same. I'd say quite the opposite. The coolerworx is a solid very notchy engagement and much shorter throw than the cravenspeed too. The cravenspeed imo feels like a stock shifter just a tad shorter throw..
I want that supershort solid throw...
I decided to give this a try !!! I ordered the red one OF COURSE ! I also ordered the vanity cover for on etsy for the coolerfaxe..
Lol I'm the tester of knockoffs ! Sofar thr budget big turbos have been PHENOMENAL for me. Not 1x issue yet and my last r58 was tracked ALL last summer too with its k04 issue free. I really suggest you guys look into the ebay billet k04 big turbos !
also how come my cravenspeed shifter has the angled back stalk and your r56 one is straight vertical ? Btw , I will be selling my c.s shifter completely assembled with the shifter box and boot delete.

 

dang that sux brother , I never had any issues with mine thxfully. Idk how it held up over the years either because I have lost track of where my car went. i have a feeling it got parted out because it had some super high-quality parts on the build.
I ordered a knockoff coolerworx so lol its a knockoff of a knockoff..
