Re: Short Shifters

To make an auto short shifter, just cut some of the lenght out. The purpose of a short shifter is physically reduce the length of time that it takes the driver to shift, and in an auto you dont have to worry about that.

Also, I think there is a piece of equipment that speeds up auto shifts, cant remember what its called though. Do a search in this section.

Auto trans intercepter. It coneccts to the wiring harness on the tranny and you can adjust the shift points.

No I don't. I don't have the car yet. But I am thinking about buying a 98 Cavy well my mom is buying it for me. I am 17 and I hear bad stuff about automatics but I really want a car. So that's why I was wondering was there any way to speed up shifting in an automatic.
