ok, I got a cheap HP racing short shifter, and it does the job I guess, decent short shifts, but it almost sits as high as my stock shifter

What short shifter sits nice and low? I sometimes feel like I'm driving a bus

Let me know, thanks.

 

I have a b&m and if i had a short **** it'd be low as hell.

 

from what i've seen and heard, the neuspeed ss sits pretty low.

 

the dc sports one is lower than the neuspeed. it's one of the lowest-sitting out there, probably.

 

i heard b&m sits pretty low...dont know though i dont think i trust short shifters

 

Ive got a chaep *** AP-C shift **** (no flaming). And its the exact same legnth as the factory ****, but the throw feels shorter than my friends B&M, the throw is determined by the legnt from the shift linkage to the ball. Cheap one's probobly **** up your transmission somehow.

 

thats what i ment by not trustin them...i heard they can really jack your tranny up

 

who cares about shifter height as long as it shifts quick!?

 

I got a JDM R shifter, damn it sits very low for some reason...C's shifter is about 1-2cm taller..

 

yeah i saw a pic of a c's with a mugen **** and it looked hella low...gb on it right i think

 

I have a DC short shifter and a Spoon **** and the combo sits pretty low.

 

the short shifter won't mess up your tranny, improper shifting will
also, i would stay away from the dc ss, heard too many stories about them braking.

i used to have an adjustable str, the ball joint was threaded and the further up the ball was the shorter the shifer was, as well as the shift, when it was all the way up it was tiny even with my mugen ****, knotchy as hell shifts, and it snapped it half

 

The Del Sol shifter sits low.. As I heard and seen pictures but I can't seem the find them..

*Update*

I found the thread and some pictures.

i snapped a gay *** APC one in half. that sucked. don't buy cheap **** .

 

 

the dc sits pretty low

 

I have a solo short shifter, and it`s short, and if you want-it shorter(in height), just cut it down and get a aftermarket shifter, and while changing shifter, change all the bushings down there aswell, they only cost like $10.

I went all out and got Neuspeed but I must admit it kicks ***!!!!

 

pacesetter adjustable...

 

You guys realize that it's not the height of the shifter that makes the difference, right? It's the gate/cable mechanism and how tightly wound the shifter is. Bushings help crisp the shift up. Your shifter could be two feet long and the ratio of the base mechanism would still be the contributing factor.

If you want your shifts quicker you shorten the shaft. shorter you need a better shifter assembly.

 

Exactly

 

yep.

i got rid of my short shifter awhile ago and use the OEM shift lever with Prothane shifter bushings. best switch ever!

 

my friend has broken 3 of them!!! he gets em free. if i ever change my shifter, its gonna be to a gsr shifter b/c of the bend.

sucks to hear about good brands shifters breaking tho

 

I couldn't possibly imagine wanting my shifter lower. My civic had a b&m shifter, and while it was the most crisp and preicse feeling shifter I've ever felt, it was so short, that it pissed me off everyimt I drove. I had to actualyl use effort to get it into 3rd, because with my seating postion I would have to push it into third with my fingertips.
