i have a standard 92 nissan 1.6l and i would have to guess the acura was a an auto
i had a 1/4 to 1/3 lead on him the whole way down and he let off i was asking to my brother do you really think he was tryin
my sentra is all stock and his acura appeared to be stock i had two people he had 1 passenger
also i just changed my oil/oil filter that morning and i was workin the clutch

lol, just get a ebay short shiter for $10. they look like an inch shorter when installed and actually throw the shift a bit shorter...worth $10 IMO

Just so you know, short shifters don't just make the shifter shorter. By "short", they mean the throw, not the height. A short shifter changes up the leverage so your hand only moves a few inches when switching gears, it doesn't lower the height of the shifter much at all.

A true short shifter uses an adapter under the shifter, it changes the geometry of the throw. A shortened shifter is only part of it.
