thank you

 

After watching that video, I really DON'T want one

I can't stand sloppy shifters.

 

I think if you look in the sposor fourm, you can find the shifter. I installed one one my friends EG, really easy install. I myself was knocking on the product, saying what ever happened to short shifters being the coolest thing, then i drove his car, an relised that it's a great product. The shifter provides a more natural, ergonomic feel to driving. IMO

Great, then this is the shifter for you.

The sloppiness is NOT from our shifter. This guy had this problem BEFORE the shifter. I think its due to worn linkage bushings (check it out for yourself https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=658181&page=3).

Here's his exact words:

when my shifter is in Gear, I can literary move it left and right... alot of play.. can anyone help me solve this problem? this happen when i did my swap.. NOTHING TO DO WITH THE LONG SHIFTER... !!!!


Don't prejudge that video. Our shifter doesn't add any slop - if you have slop in your stock shifter due to worn bushings before installing our shifter, it won't magically make it go away. Likewise, if your shifts are crisp and tight with no slop stock (i.e. b/c you have new or poly linkage bushings), it will stay this way once you install the new shifter.

I installed mine with Mugen bushings. No slop at all.

I love the stock shifter myself. that would be one of the last things I changed on the R.

agreed, you f00's should try hopping in an Accord after driving the R..

night and day

The R's throw is even better than my 97 Lude w/the craptastic DC short shifter

 

Cs shifter with Mugen bushings is also very nice. I needed an ITR linkage to use the Cs..
