I cant seem to find a simple answer to this simple question on google or h-t.com.

What type of short shifters are the ones that only stick up about 2 inches? like really short ones, idk how to explain it all too well...
For instance, a RX-8 has a really small shifter. My car has a short shifter already(skunk 2) but its almost the same height as the stock one.
better yet, lemme show a pic of what i mean...

this is the style i want. I dont know the specific type of the short shifter though


Heres the style of shifter I have.

 

b&m makes it short

 

Heres my B&M with John Deere tractor ****.
Most people say its pretty short.

 

Wow! that looks awesome. If you want really short just cut and get it re tapped. But shorter is not better.

 

Just get one of these! I love mine.

 

I always assumed that shorter would be better because the throw distance would decrease. Im sure we're only talking about a .013 sec response time improvement though...(and yes i pulled the .013 sec out my *** cuz i really dont know the improvment )
IDK I just find the shorter style to be more sleek and professional in my opinion.

 

the B&M looks like a old school video game ****. like the carbon around it. putting a shift boot still?

 

shortening the length doesn't shorten the shift, moving the pivot point (which a short shifter does) shortens the shift. common misconception

 

TWM Performance makes a sick short shifter. They have three models. If you check out the stage 2 "FS" model (stands for ****in short lol) it's REALLY short and throws are REALLY reduced.

check out their site:

wowzer @ the stage 2 with 50% throw reduction!
so whats the durability expectancy on these little things?
Ive heard some horror stories about bodily injury because some aftermarket shifter broke causing it to stab their arm or bash their knuckles into stereos. lol

 

cutting your shifter huh? and how much EXTRA time will it take to go the distance you cut? lolz what a joke.

 

now nice info! keep em coming!

 

Nice, lol

 

Ive done this. You don't want it. one of the worst things ive done to my car and ive had it since i was 15.
