short shifters

I just finish installing it, and all can say is the it is so cool it is the best bang for you buck mod. instead of shifting a mile it is an inch it is great. To anyone thing of getting one, They should for sure.

I wouldnt call it the best bang for the bucks mod but it is nice. Im glad I got mine:bigthumb:

Exactly not the best bang for your buck. but it is very nice to have.

where did u pick yours up @? i got mine off eBay...it's a no-name brand, but it beats the stock shifter...it took me like 3 days to get used to shifting because it's a world of difference from stock shifting...:bigthumb:

i fitted mine on friday..., i noticed a big difference! looks good too, nice n chrome :bigthumb:

yea I got a APC short shifter off of Autodynamic.com
Cost me about 60 bucks including shipping.
Definetly not the best bang for the buck but is a great improvement.
Now when you drive other cars without short shifters it feels so different.
I dont know if they really improve your time but it sure does feel like you have more control.

could you guys post pics of before and after and whats the diff ?

it's pretty much explains itself...short shifter = shorter shift, theres only about a half an inch difference in the shift linkage difference, but it feels like a mile...and the shifter sits lower in the car....

i think the stock throw on the civic is fine ... now the bmw bavaraia my dad bought is a different story ... if that thing had a short shifter it would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

my short throw is the same size as the origanal one but with maybe half the throw, oh and its for a 98 civic, but they are the same, its just a shorter throw than the crx one i had
