Ask the seller to measure both and then buy the one that is shorter.

I had the dual bend on my first integra and loved it. I find it puts the shifter closer to you. Good choice.

i've heard that the skunk2 shifter is almost just like a type r shifter. if you wanted one pretty low, b&m dual would be your best bet.

just did the same in my 92 DA, ran into problems with rust, didnt have to loosen the cat though. I also just cut the heat shield right out. only real pain in the *** was that i had my little jack so i could only get my car high enough just fit my *** under there, sucks working on your back with your chest/stomach on the bottom of the car

i had no rust problems just at the end of the install the bottom of the shifter was scrapping the heat shield
so we just loosened the bolts near it

Yes I took it off it should be the one above your b-pipe not your cat.

I have a 92 gsr and am looking for something low I was debating between the skunk 2 and the b&m.

I think my friend has a b&m in his DC and it is really low. Might just be a DC thing. I want mine low though. lets see some pics of yours.
