Well, we finally have one! I've been able to drive with the Lean True Short Shifter on for 1week, and here are my findings:
The Lean True Short Shifter is one of the best modifications done to my car. Its used daily and makes the car feel a lot different. In comparison to the OEM shifter assembly, it is night and day. Shifting no longer has an unsure, sloppy and long feel, but now shorter, sure, and solid. Shifting the Lean True Short Shifter is best described as flicking on and off a light switch, precise, short, and sure. It is an either on or off, in gear or out. Installation is a as easy as putting on a new shift knob.
Throw is definitely shorter and more solid, knob height is lower than stock, but not much, this doesn’t force you to have to put force into your daily driving shifts, the lower the knob the more force needed to move the lever. It is at a comfortable position, for daily driving, and perfectly placed to shift faster than that stock Prelude beside you at the light. The biggest impression made to me by this shifter is the solidness of the shift.
The OEM shifter was very sloppy and unsure, I’d double check to make sure the car was in gear, my brother also noticed this when he drove my prelude, now we are both confident in our shifts, I more than him. The construction of the product is top notch, with the welds being perfect and thick. Strength is at the highest. Shifter has withstood many powerful slams by myself during the test drive.
With this shifter on, I have found myself enjoying driving more and more, along with loving the quicker, and solid shifts that make a world of difference. Now those grocery store runs are worth it.
