copied my buddys thread from a different site


Steeda Tri-Axwell.....tonight (12/11/09) i was out street racing. i was just watching a few cars here and there then i saw this GT smoke a 370Z and the GT was stock! so i was like ok ill get a piece of each, well me and the GT raced first. and i dunno how but i missed 2nd so that was over. and then we raced again. we both spun a little bit then hooked and i jumped him bout half a car at first and started pulling. Right as i end 2nd gear and slam into 3rd i noticed something wrong when i wound up punching the dash with the shifter still in my hand.... yea i broke it clean off, "forged" my ass. so im sending steeda a not so nice email with pictures about this crap they say is "un-breakable" i hate my life.... enjoy!!

Holy crap! That must of made your butt pucker. I had one of my Tri-ax bolts come out while driving. I pushed the clutch in coasted to the breakdown lane and shut it off. Temp fixed and thread locked it when I got home.

Good luck dealing with Steeda...

There has been a couple of guys break their tri-ax at the track up here. I went home and picked up my stock shifter and sold it to a guy so he could drive home.

Holy hell. Some people are just entirely too damn rough on shifters. Ive got a good buddy who broke the shifter in my N/A z32 300ZX I used to have. The crazy ass bangs gears like he's on the juice or something.

If your buddy would be a little more gentle he probably wouldnt break shifters and might actually hit a gear from time to time. I love my Tri-Ax.

OR it could have been a bad casting. All companies struggle with product defects, and the good ones find a way to minimize them.
