hey guys i just installed my bc short shifter, and everything is great. short and smooth. though it is very difficult to shift in reverse. why? i do no know..? please give me some of your input on this topic. thank you.

 

i had the same problem with my B&M shifter so i took it apart and it ended up being the cable arm rubbing on the shifter housing (box), but as i remember the BC SS doesnt have a cable arm so it might be completely sumthing else.

 

yea i think i might get rid of it..

 

try comptech ss, its great

 

do you have a problem putting it into reverse?

 

no just had problem puttin 4th to 5th at start but not anymore

 

thanks man. how much was it?

 

take note that the Comptech SS is only an adapter. the BC SS is a full shifter assembly. Why not try the Revo SS?

 

buddy club is the best i had no probs, check that it is installed corect or maybe u have a bum shifter

 

i jus made my own short shifter i didnt bother buying one. i cut the bracket at the bottom off and raised it a half inch or so and for the hell of it i cut a half inch out of the top and re-welded it and welded the bracket up on the bend but before i welded the bracket i drilled a hole in the bend of the bracket so once i welded the bracket i filled the hole full of weld so i know the bracket wont break off if anyone wants any pictures ill be more than willing to post them

 

i have a buddy ss, i dont have any prob, but mines a 6spd si, it goes into 6 fine and reverse fine, might want to check it again just in case, mine works great, so dont get rid of it

yea that would be great..!

 

OMG what r u doing??? the buddy club short shifter is awesome you must of installed something wrong....or maybe theres a difference between 6spd an 5spd shifters..maybe you have the wrong one for your car..

 

There's no Buddy Club short shifter made for a 5-speed; they're originally for the 6-speed CTR.

By the way... we're talking about the kit for the EP3, right?

 

did anyone install their short shifter themself?

 

i installed my B&M
