hey guys i'm looking to put a short shifter in my 96 accord my friend put one in his 00 integra and i took it for a ride and love how short the shift throws are and as we all know the accord is like rowing a boat . I have seen the ones on ebay but wasnt sure what was out there. im not trying to spend a fortune on it just dont want to buy crap.

 

No one can give a little help or any suggestions?

 

jtc still makes them. a lot of people love the forbidden short throw shifter, but it's difficult to find.

 

I just recently installed a weapon r short throw adapter onto my wagon. Got it new from ebay for $15. Does it's job, and for the price, no room to complain. Keeps me from searching high and low for a long discontinued pspec or forbidden piece.

 

Thanks perfecteverytime going to look into the jtc. if the forbidden is hard to find then they are probably going to go for a pretty penny.


thanks stnwagon i was looking at similar items on ebay but wasn't sure how good the quality was but i will keep it in mind as well

 

its worth the $15 to hold you over during your search for a true short shifter. its not close to a gsr with a short shifter, maybe its almost as short as a stock integra shifter, but its worlds better than the row boat throw of the stock accord shifter.

 

i will keep it in mind but i have time im in mass and the weather changes like i change socks the cars off the road for the winter so its just on the parts list i have going

 

OEM Prelude 92-95 IIRC is shorter overall but not by much.

4bidden is one of the best along with Pspec, both are discontinued and are rare to find.

I have the adapter on mine, it shortens the throw but not the actual length of the shifter, Ive seen people install and chop a few inches off their shifter but that would be up to you. It also depends on how much you want to spend.

 

JTC is worth it.

 

thanks everyone i ordered the JTC shifter last week hoping it will be in soon. its like a late christmas here i keep getting more parts in the mail everyday for my accord next is a camber kit but im not sure what on to get then tires. but thanks everyone for the suggestions

 

How do you like your JTC shifter? Any feedback on it? How long did it take for you to receive it after the order was placed?

 

Not to highjack the thread, but is their any company that makes one for a 98-02 Accord?

 

I wouldn't suggest the cheap ebay $15 ones. I've heard of people pulling hard after shifting and it jams and you can't pull it out of gear. Heard it with multiple different sources. I'd go safe and do something a little less, "you get what you pay for" kinda thing

06mrevo i love it its nice and short and the throws are short as well going into reverse and 5th are something to get used to but im glad i got the jtc and not an ebay one. it took almost two weeks to get the shifter in but it is a custom part so i guess it can be expected

 

Is JTC not making these shifters anymore? I looked all over their site and couldn't find one. I don't care if I have to drop 150$, I want the SS for this car. The row boat is driving me nuts.

1997 Lx.

 

Neuspeed also make a short throw shifter adapter for the honda accords, but there becoming scarce.

 

I only drove one car with a short throw shifter and loved it. I would like to have one on my beater.

 

JTC is making an adjustable version for all models so just wait until they release it. It should be soon.

 

They've been saying soon for like 6 months.

 

if anyone is still looking for a 4th gen Forbidden MotorSports Shortshifter PM me.
Also have the cooling plate if interested.

 

I am looking to do add this to my car. with the prelude assembly from a junkyard. is there any problems or mods I have to do to make it work? do I need new cables to? ill be replacing bushings regardless.

 

Can the OP or anyone else with one post some pics of the aftermarket shifter? I am modifying my stock shifter and was wondering about the differences on the shift arms and throw distances
