I would go with B&M, you can get one on ebay for around $50 with bushings/grease and it shifts real nice and smooth.

hrm... dskljflasjfaskldfj for that one i think a lot of it is perosnal preference...

im currently using a DC sport short shifter... i tihkn its a little more expunsive than a b&m... i havent felt a b&m though but im quite happy with my dc... the thro wis rather short and that fkr sits kinda low. i dig it, some others might not, thats why i say its personal pref.

The short ones are okay for daily driving, I've used the ebay aluminum cheap ones (crap, crappy linkage bushings, rattled a lot, not smooth) and the B&M stainless steel one with the billet pivot-ball housing (nice, heavy, excellent nylon linkage bushings, very smooth, no rattles), but when I started tracking the car I realized how important it is to have the shift **** as close to the steering wheel as possible. I've never seen the long shifter in action on a Honda, but I did see a guy using one on a BMW and it was amazing how little time he had to take his hand off the wheel for a shift.
