Well, today i was driven around in a GSR, (those are so great) and it had a few mods done to it. It has some engine work, racing pedals, and a short shifter. Since X-mas is comming, i thought that i could put that on my list (fyi, i am 16, i cant help it ). For you people with short shifters, what do you have, or had, Reviews would be great. I know there is a thread in the basement about Shift knobs, so if u wanna say anything about those too, knock ur self out. Thanks han people:thumbup:

 

get a gsr short shifter for your civic

 

 

i have a no-name ebay short shifter, works good, no complaints, im eventually gonna get a bushing kit for it. as for a shift knob, i had the stock one on there, right now there's a cheap-o one there, and i just got B & M T-handle for it, but havnt put it on yet.

 

I have one I got for X-mas. Dunno what brand. But its red
Get the bushings with it. That way you can put both of them in at the same time.
I have a CTR replica knob. Looks ok, but my hand slips off once in a while when I go to the tracks. VERY BAD TO MIS-SHIFT. Killed my tranny that way.

 

I have a DC Sport shifter. No complaints either. No matter what brand you get, spend a few more dollars and get the bushings at the same time.

 

dont think its hard for a generic brand to create an exact duplicate of some expensive short-shifter, like a neuspeed or whatever.. but yeah, when you get a shift get shifter bushings, i got my generic shifter and neuspeed bushings for $60 bucks.

 

i used to have a gsr short shifter in my koop, now in my hatch im runnin a STOCK gsr shifter and it feels great and the throws are a bit shorter then my stock del sol shifter. i would never consider goin bakk to a ss either cuz its just a plain sometimes due to the rattling and the more effort needed to get a gear in even with my neuspeed bushings. i suggest gettin a stock gsr shifter, it has dual bends lean the shifter closer to the driver. a civic is a straight piece. if u must have one, B&M, dc sports, neuspeed, and skunk2 are a few good choices.

i have the skunk 2 with bushings it works great just dont buy a cheap one or a no name brand one of my friends did and he's had nothing but problems. like it rubbing on the exhaust. 5th was hard to get

 

Different car but I'm using the OBX one and it's good, no complaints and the best part is they're super cheap. The only complaint I have is the general ruggedness of shortshifters so I'm just gonna buy a bushing kit to dampen that issue.
