The DC sports short shifter is known to be crap, there are many reports of breakage. But then again Weapon R is crap also...

I have a Neuspeed short throw. I love it. It's actually a factory Honda peice just lengthened. Honda makes a good shifter, Neuspeed just impoved upon it.

DC=crap
B@M=crap

Im sure tons of people have either had the DC snap on them, or seen them snap.
Thats a pretty big problem

C's is without a doubt the best, but Neuspeed seems to be a strong 2nd if you dont want to fork over the loot for the C's.

Yeah, everyone here has $300 to blow on a shifter .......

If you want a disposable short shifter, you can get DC knock offs for $20 on EBAY. Buy 4 of them for the same price as the DC. That way when they both would normally break in the same time frame, you're only out $20 instead of $85.

Same damn shifter, just one has DC's name stamped on it .......

C's would be great, but I don't feel like putting a 2nd mortgage on my house for a damn shifter ..... there are more important parts I could buy with $300.
