since i put my s. shifter in my car when i shift at high rpm's in 3 gear it grinds sometimes it wont even go in gear i have to let the rpm's go down to go in 3 gear can anyone help me?

 

you probably arent getting it completly in... maybe you messed up the tranny?

 

I had a short shifter and got rid of it for this very reason. I've talked to others who have had the same experience. Get rid of the thing and get some urethane bushings and you should be happy.

 

my budy t-civic does it with short shifter but not as bad why do they do that thats disapointing cause i like that short shifter

 

the throw is to short and does'nt allow you enough time to disengage the clutch to get it into gear. the shifter is moving quicker than your foot. the stock gsr shifter works fine, dont stress over not being able to use it.

 

Use ur stock shifter. Short throws are tranny killers, and you can shift just as fast without it.

I sure can't...

I have never "killed" any transmissions from using a short shifter in any of my cars. You might have a shitty ebay shifter that is not aligned properly or you have ground your syncros up to the point of no return.

Really? I kno plenty of trannys that got screwed from short shifters (non eBay). Some within a month of install. They suk!

 

my car is an rs but anyway u prob. are right a few guys i kow have the same problem the shifter is an AR shifter

 

i think stock works best imo. the short throw doesnt let u feel the gears well enough... for me anyways.
