jason1wood · Nov 8th, 2004, 03:37 AM

that's the thing about a Whalen, it's personal thing.
got to have one, makes a huge difference to shifting, but if it's engraved it's so personal!

JORD W · Nov 8th, 2004, 08:17 PM

Is that irem number correct? just done a search on it and it came up as: A history of washington county.

JORD W · Nov 21st, 2004, 11:43 AM

sorry everyone this is the correct item No: 4504958451
thanks ending today in about 7 hours!

dalboyne · Nov 21st, 2004, 02:01 PM

Try here: 7934892248

It's a different one, with a "grey" finish, but not personalised with initials.........and I've just been outbid!

JORD W · Nov 21st, 2004, 02:06 PM

that one is horrible! really gross finish the worst one i have ever seen no wonder he is selling it!!!!!!!

dalboyne · Nov 21st, 2004, 03:05 PM

How about this then?

7934821922

Looks like it's made of aluminium, not steel, so it might look a bit like a Whalen, but won't have that satisfying mass that help you slip smoothly and sensuously into gear.......!!

v8voodoo · Nov 21st, 2004, 06:53 PM

Jord,

Thanks for the kind comments about my Whalen.

I went for the bead blasted finish to be DIFFERENT to everyone else. I didn't want chrome / polished / brushed finish as they are quite popular (read: common/bling) and isn't this all about personalising your car to individual tastes? In addition, the finish matched my interior far more than other varieties of Whalen IMHO.

I am only selling it because I have recently sold my MCS for a newer WRX which has more room and more go (the rattles in my MINI were also driving me up the wall..lol!), not because of the Whalen's finish which is not to your taste.

It's nice that you air your opinion, after all, that's what these forums are all about. Have you ever said "the pictures don't do it justice" about something..?

If Doug did a Whalen for the Subaru, I'd go for exactly the same finish for exactly the same reasons.

Fancy tapping into another market Doug? I've seen nothing as cool as a Whalen for my Impreza yet...

Nige,
Dover.

JORD W · Nov 25th, 2004, 08:19 PM
