Re: crx short shifter..yes or no?

what brand is it? If its generic then fuck no, if its something good like B+M then go for it (which i doubt for so cheap). Generic/ ebay shifters suck and my friend bought one for kicks and it broke in 2 weeks.

I have an APC short shifter and it works fine. It really helps if you replace all the bushings and the dust cover...

I had a apc short shifter from auto zone(I know its gay and rice, but im poor) that I have beat the crap out of for the last 3 years. It lasted longer than my b16 that I just had to pull out due to missing 3rd.

Re: crx short shifter..yes or no?

yeah mos def go with the short shifter. i love it. mine came with the car so i dont what brand it is but the throw is unbelievably short. my friend has a b & m and my throw is shorter than his. it really helps ur shift speed. it just takes some time gettin use to it.

Re: crx short shifter..yes or no?

i have DC in my integra and ur bushing that is what will make all the dif. my buy has a skunk2 in his 90 si with bushing also, but his slapes around like a hard peenes. as far as short shifters go it realt don't matter who makes them thay are all the same. some you have to watch your hard shifting you might brake it in half. but i have had DC,APC,MATRIX they are all the same. i put one on every car i have. but all with bushings.
so just get it even if you don't like it what's $40.00. you will like it more then your long ass stock one.
