wut kind of short shift kit is good for a type r. i was thinking of dc but then today i went to a local raceshop (garage 5) and they told me to get a skunk 2. now i am not sure which one i should get r if there any thing better then those 2 please let me know. thanx!

 

DC tend to break. Some do and some don't. But it seems like it's just a matter of time and how you shift with it.

I have no clue about skunk2.

 

Hey Paul, It's E-40six from Clubintegra,
yeah get the Skunk 2 short shifter that G5 Recommend, thats the one i have and i it got from G5 also.

 

stock with shorter shift **** is the better choice

 

C'z if you can find it...and you don't mind the cost

 

today i checked out ajr they said get t1r or sumthin and lordco said get bmn or sumthin like dat.

 

I run a Neuspeed...very solid.

have an extra in stock that needs a good home!

 

i have str and it's adjustable short shift..

it has been working fine for me. no problem so far..

 

I have the skunk 2 setup and couldn't be happier

You probably won't be hearing much more about it. They've gone out of business (Comrade).

Basically their shifters had a set of bearings (rollerblade bearings really) at the bottom, versus a slide-in bearing.

I'm trying to have located a "hidden stash" as I type this. Personally, I'd try out some good shifter bushings and a short shifter before trying the C's. The Neuspeed kit includes both.

Now, the C's driver position shift is another story, that my friend, is awesome. (height/position adjustable).

That's the best one I've ever seen

Too bad they're not available anymore.

 

bump for the Neuspeed! I have one in my R and my 91 Si. Love em!!

wut if u get dc shortshift kit with energy suspension(ES) bushings.

the reason i want dc rather then the skunk2 is because dc reduces your shifting 50% and skunk2 only reduces it 30%

Don't put so much weight in numbers my friend... 20% of a matter of inches is not much of a difference.. Especially when shifting takes fractions of a second.

The more important thing is Shifter Feel/accuracy IMO.

Sure it reduces the distance a few fractions of an inch more. But if you are missing gears frequently, that isn't really going to be a factor.

 

well the 50% 30% is nott o big of a deal but with the skunk2 your shifter is at stck height but the dc makes it lower so i like that better.
