Default What's the best short throw shift kit?

I was wondering what was the best short throw shift kit for the Integra GSR? I can only imagine the stock shifter feels like a dump truck, is it possible to get something that feels much better on top of functioning more efficiently?

The GSR gearbox is fantastic stock. Why mess with a good thing? It always has gotten praise for being quick and presice. I have never had any issues or a dump truck feel in mine.

The GSR gearbox was widely regarded as one of the best in the world when it was first produced (second only to NSX and perhaps Miata). If it's in good shape it's a nice unit in stock form.

Some of them get sloppy overtime, but when they are in good shape, it's actually a decent tranny. The only thing I've seen that actually improves on factory design would be the B&M race shifter with the built in spherical bushing, so you aren't relying on a piece of plastic.
