Default Forbidden Short Shifter - AWESOME!!!

I bought a short shifter from Jeremy at Forbidden Motorsports a few weeks ago. I installed it recently and WOW!!! What a difference!!!!! I thought there was basically no "mush" in the shift pattern with my car to begin with (emphasis on "I thought"). I bought if for the shorter throw. After driving with it for a couple of weeks, I've gotta tell you this is a great shifter. Not only shorter throw, but it cleaned up slop I never realized was there in the shift pattern. Installation was VERY easy and took me a little over an hour start to finish and I'm no mechanic. Just wanted to share the good news with everyone here. I talked to Jeremy and he has already said he would discount to anyone who mentions my name from the site when they order. Anyone who wants to change the feel of their driving experience has got to try this shifter.

CUDOS to Jermey!! Great work!! Tell him you heard about it from Kendall and he'll discount the price a little.

So far the shifter is only available for 4th gens (mine's a '93). They also work on Accords I think. I've contacted Jeremy to see what kind of deal he's willing to make for you guys. I'll let you know when he gets back with me.

we had a group buy with those when he first introduced them, im gonna say about a year ago. its a great shifter, i think the adjustability is the best part of the unit.

it will fit accords with a few shifter box pieces you can buy from honda, mostly bolts i think. there is a thread or several around here about the accord pieces and the previous groupbuy. try searching for more info.

he also sells them on ebay, i saw an auction last week for one.

With some modifications, you can adapt them to a 5th Gen. Definitely a great product.

I also have one. Very nice. I like how it has 3 different settings, I keep mine on the medium setting. I've heard that it is pretty much the same thing as the C's shifter... but a couple C notes cheaper. I don't think C's makes that shifter anymore anyhow.
