soem will tell you to get a B&M, which are great. I own a pace setter, which allows for adjustability on how short you want it. remember though, the shorter the throw is, the more effort you need to put into shifting, due to the geometry of the shift forks. i.e. stiffer shifter

I have an adjustable Pace Setter also. Its ok I guess. I think I'd rather have a Skunk2 or B&M though. Thing about aftermarket shifters, they don't feel as smooth as a stock GSR/ITR shifter in my opinion

like it feels harder to get into gears sometimes. Unlike a stock shifter where it just glides right in. might have something to do with the way its bolted onto the linkage, i dont know
