As the topic states, Im trying to find out who makes a shifter lever that is taller and angled towards the driver (aftermarket or OEM). This will be for a EG DX. I've noticed that the Skunk2's look a bit taller than most other short shifters and is angled toward the driver. I dont have the money to spend one on a C's driving position kit. Are the del sol, GSR/ITR shifters offer what Im looking for?

are you a midget by chance?

if so cool.

and to stay on topic, i do not know.

 

I know the gs-r shifter sits closer the the driver (well at least mine does).
It comes up about the same height as the civic one but curves back

 

Hahahaha, i wasnt expecting a reply like this. I got some stumpy arms

Anyone would care to share some info?

 

The del sol shifter is cocked twards the driver, it shifts really nice, the throw is shorter than any other oem shifter, it is exactly what your looking for.

 

Yeah, go for the dual bend Skunk2. They say it's for an Integra, but it can be used on any 92-00 Civic. I'm getting one from Massimo in the Best Buys forum. Check it out.

 

Yeah, actually both shifters are for both 94-00 Teg's and 92-00 Civics. They're universal on B and D series trannys. I have a skunk 2 dual bend with **** and bushings on my hatch. No complaints what so ever.

 

Thanks for the replies guys.
One thing I want to ask is if anyone has tried the Arospeed Robo Shifter. PLEASE, i dont want to hear things like "that is soo rice" or anything to that extent. If its negative, please leave them to urself.

 

actually my friend has that and it's pretty dope, well made too

 

How long has ur friend been using it and has he had any problems with it? Like having to retighten the bolts every once in a while....or its a fragile peice that cant handle brute force, etc?

 

A similar topic and pics of the C's kit for those who dont know...

spw makes a weird *** lever that ataches where the shift **** is and moves it towards you and up a little..

 

great googly moogly gapx
who makes that thing??

 

I'd throw on either a skull or crystal ball shifter **** on that ****! Straight up Hot rod Rock N' Roll!!!!!

 

I also want to know. That would be nice if it's adjustable!

On the track, the closer the shift **** is to the steering wheel, the less time you are driving withOUT both hands.

 

Damn, from what they said at that post C's dosn't make that shifter any more. . That's what I'm looking for.

Anyone else know of a company that's making something similar?

G

 

Anybody have more info on this piece? Sounds like what I've been looking for.

 

I love my dual bend skunk2 shifter it's alot closer and taller then the B&M shifter I replaced. it doesn't rattle like the B&M either which was annoying as hell.

 

Dont think Id feel comfortable with all those bolts. What if one comes loose?

 

he's been using it for awhile and it has given him no problems at all, and he's pretty rough with it

 

Dunno about Gap's shifter, but those CF seats are

Hmmm, think they make a shift boot for that? LOL!

 

Stumpy arms. Reminds me of a certain "Unpainted Carbon Fiber" fan here...

 

Thanks purplehaze.
Im thinking the best way to prove that it can handle hard shifts is by abusing it at the dragstrip. If it can survive 1/4mile shifts without anything moving out of place or snapping, I will be satisfied. Is there anything else ur friend would like to add? Perhaps he can give me/us some personal feedback on this thread?
Btw, I like ur Hart CP's

That thing is higher than my old man's dump truck shifter.
