Default Best short shifter?

Just wanted some feed back as far as best short shifter. I was looking at getting the B&M but was just curious what others had or liked. Like how is the revo, comptech, neuspeed, B&M, dc and what not. This will be my first ss.

I vote Neuspeed. Easy install, have had for almost a year, inexpensive, no problems.

Many have chosen the revo since they have updated on their welding. B&M is very solid and works well. I've installed and driven one. The nuespeed was good also but it only reduced the throw fore and aft, not sideways as the b&m. My friend and I installed the comptech one in his car and i find that is the best bang for the buck because it redues throws fore, aft, and sideways and the price is close to the neuspeeds. So it's really your pick. I personally will be getting the comptech next week. Good luck.

revo has the shortest throw.
B&m is stronger than revo but doesnt give shorter throw than revo.

I agree. The Comptech one in my car works really well. Has all the advatageous mentioned above and really easy to install. Price is attractive too.

I suggest either NEUSPEED or REVO, ease of installation on these makes them my pick

like he said, how much shorter do you need to go, you can shift hondas with your pinky if you wanted to.

OK, have you shifted an rsx with a ss in it? Cause if you had you wouldn't have made that retarted coment! IF the shifts couldn't have been improved, why then did the #1 short shifter maker make one for the rsx? I'm talking about B&M if you didn't know. I have the B&M and it's awsome! A little on the expensive side but it's an awsome piece. The highest quality of an ss!

didnt u just post how you are looking for a short shifter? to answer your question they made the shifter to make money, pretty simple answer. im just saying honda-acuras have a short throw as is, why dont you spend your money on something alittle more useful. i understand what they do but stock is perfectly fine. no need to get defensive, i am sorry i tried to take business away from the great ss makers at B&M.

can you please say that dvc2004's comment was retarded also, id feel a lot better. thanks

Keep it stock or go ITR. A few of my friends have had the revo and it breaks under hard use.
