is anyone in here running an H22 swap with a plastic shifter base?
do they sit higher?
are there any drawbacks, or advantages?

 

WELL I CURRENTLY DID A H22A4 SWAP INTO A 95 EG... THE PLASTIC SHIFTER BRACKET DOES SIT TOO HIGH .. IN THIS CASE ALL THE EXTRA PLASTIC IS CUT/SHAVED OFF UNTILL IT CAN SIT MORE FLUSH WITH THE BODY.. U CAN FIND MORE INFO AROUND JUST KEEP LOOKING...

 

I used the plastic from a 98 lude, in my 98 civic coupe. does not sit high, still use cup holders and all works/looks great.

 

thanks for the input guys

has anyone had experience with both?
prefrences?
maybe i should try the Lude forum too....

 

In my experiance, the platic shift box would streatch cables, i also have a short shifter piece on it. Switched to the metal kind from an accord, shifts the same with different throw. Easier to install too, just tak-welded it down. <----lazy
