r u kiddin me? what differences does it make whether its a jdm or usdm shifter? dual bend if u want the shifter to lean back towards you more, single bend, it just sits straight so no gangsta lean with that one. all 94-01 integra comes with the dual bend shifters, civic only comes with a single bend.

well, there are only 2 body styles of the civic type r and we already know you arent talking about the 03's. civics came with the single bend, i dont think any came with the dual bend from the factory.

Since we're on the topic of shifters... what short shifter kits sit the lowest to the center console in the 6th gen civic?

I had a rsx type s with a revo short shifter and that thing was very low, so I just wanna know if the civics have something similar seeing how the civic will be my next ride.

Sorry for not searching, but TIA to anyone who answers

i dont know who makes the "shortest" shifters. if you get a skunk2 dual bend it would be pretty short.

I have heard alot of good things about the Skunk2 shifter.

I have a DC sports one and love it, but I am contemplating switching to the B&M one or Skunk2.
