a dude is selling me a c's short shifter (not the personal one) but it doesnt have the bushing. he tells me i need some sort of custom bushing because it's jdm... but aren't they all the same?

 

Use the bushing that is on the car already.

 

so it's straight plug and play?

 

Yes. The only bushings I could imagine he is talking about are the plastic clear washers that go on the bottom of the shifter. Everything else just transfers over.

Use this chance to change your shifter bushings to Mugen or Energy Suspension.

 

yeah the very bottom of the short shifter is what he's talking about. probably gonna get myself some mugens

 

They are indeed special but I honestly wouldn't worry too much about them. Very easy to loose.

 

the bushings on the bottom of the shifter are two bearings ( like on a skateboard wheel..just smaller)

one on each side of the shifter, then there is a circle tube inside to guide the bushing screw on the cars shift linkage.

is that what he is talking about?

not sure how much your getting it for. but ive never had to find those parts so not sure if its hard or not...

 

yes that's what im talking about. the skateboard doh doh's lol

im not really sure what he meant when he said that it's different because it's jdm...

yea the pieces on that area are. two white plastic washers, two bearings, one guide tube. the two plastic washers you dont really need its just there to keep the dirt out ( i wrap mine in a plastic bag) but i couldnt tell you where to get those bearings...

how much were you spending on it? i could get you a brand new one. but it will cost alot

 

have him take a picture of whats missing .. you dont want to get stuck with something you cant fix..

 

pm'ed u

 

anyone have their c's shifter not installed? i'd like to see the bearings

 

Forget it! It won't work!
You need to sell it to me!

 

straight up trade for ur dc5r!

 

can anyone measure the bearings on their c's short shifter?

 

What can I but a c's shifter?

 

This is everything that came with my C's shifter. Awesome shifter BTW.

That's what the ones marked "EK4/DC2" look like. I've had mine for 4.5 yrs.

 

The one I have in my EH is quite different. I wonder if they did update.
I used the stock bushing that goes around the pivot point.

Wow, has it been that long since I bought mine from you? Time sure flies by...

CxShoe, who knows, maybe the EH and EK/DC2 versions are different.

 

EH variants can work with itr's though right?

Whoa. Is that you Keith?

PS - I personally would make sure that I get the EK4/DC2 version. No fitment surprises that way, and plus the throws are short and smooth. I tried the DPS and found the throws to be longer than the std. C's.

it will work fine but you have to use washers on one side to compensate for the dc2 ,ek offset
