: WARNING : Dont buy an ebay short shifter. The guy above probly doesnt ever shift hard. But I've had one and was at the track within a week of installing it and it snapped when I threw it into second. Less then a week old and it snapped. I think your best bet is to go buy a Megan Racing one (In Chrome), They told me the Chrome ones are there newer stronger ones which will not break. And if they do it has a 1 year warrenty. Well they all have a 1 year warrenty. I got the blue one, but he had told me that about the new ones after I had already recieved/installed mine. And the best part is its only $29.99 Shipped. I have one and its nice. But dont buy an Ebay one. You can search for "Megan Products" Here on H-T and there is a shop that sells megan products. I ordered from there. The rep's Name is Gabriel. Hope this helps! : Warning :

Here's the link https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1396035
Extreme Power Performace is the shop. And they deal direct with Megan. Which is located in California.

Damn right I don't. When it comes to road racing, a fast shift isn't worth the risk.

ive had my ebay shifter for 3 years. im drag racing my car twice a month at the track. those who break their ebay shifter are shifting way to hard, that isnt good for the tranny.
