Default Shifter Question

I hear you have to pry the joint of the d-series linkage open a little to fit a teg shifter.

You'll wear out the sychros by driving like an idiot trying to tear through gears like its a rally car. The shifter has nothing to do with it.

there is no prying involed. they are exactly the same, minus the bends.

no a oem shifter off of a integra, or a short shifter for that matter will not tear up your syncros. shifting like a retard will tear up your syncros. be careful of the idiotic rumors and false infos not only on the web but on the street.

Troubleshooting broken parts on your car more often then not starts with the driver. I know this one guy whom can not drive a car without messing something up. It's safe to say he doesn't get to borrow my car. Just make sure you have a smooth technique and you shouldn't have any problems.

Wasn't implying anything. Just stating common sense.
