I can get a good deal on a gsr shifter(just the lever), will this fit in my 97 civic and will it improve my shifts in any ways? How hard will it be to swap the gsr shifter on my civic?

 

if its a short shifter it will , i dont think a stock gsr shifter will do much for you.

 

I think all B-series shifters are the interchangeable, right?

I dont' think it's the same, not positive, either way, I know it won't there's not much of a diff, you're better off just getting a short throw shifter

 

i have a dual bend b&m shifter made for a gsr in my d series tranny. sits maybe a half an inch forward because the shift linkage is a different length. but works like a charm. 15 minute install.

 

gsr has a shorter throw then any civic !

 

if i get a short shifter, would it be better to get one for a gsr or for a ek?

 

the shifter wont work because the part where the shifter bolts to the linkage is too wide...so...get one for an ek

15 minutes!?

Damn, if I installed one in 15 minutes, there'd be parts missing 'n **** :-P

lowest half hour at best?

OH well, nice job anyways

 

right...my best was like 45 min

 

yea, im just crazy and can do it in 15 min

yea, probably around half an hour, i just exagerate to underscore simplicity

 

seemed like 15 minutes to me as well, prob in reality it was a half hour.

 

all swaps r easy if you know what you're doing and impossible if you don't know...
