I dont know...just looks like a cheap billet aluminum shifter that's going to break easily. Go with B&M.

I'd say it's a fake! Read what the particulars say: "This Adapter is Made by DCSport of Japan. They are very well known for their items in Japan, and they have just now reached the US Shores with a Distributor in CA." Doesn't sound like DC Sports to me. Someone's just trying to capitalize on the name similarity.

That's like the one a guy on CSi is selling for $45 shipped. He clearly states it is not from DC Sports, but rather from DC Sport of Japan. It is just another cheap company to buy from.

That is a crappy *** short shifter. I had that same one on my Si but I took it off. It's made by Arospeed.

Trust me don't buy it. i was stupid enough to bid on one. I knew it was too good to be true, but that's what I get for trying to go the cheap way. It was a nice polished shifter, but I seriously think it's taller than my factory shifter and is of no benefit. This thing is a POS! i learned the hard way.
