I am looking for a short shifter for my 01 R, which one is the best choice?

 

I had the Skunk2 and hated it. It rattled like crazy. I ended up getting rid of it for the DC and love it. The DC is a shorter throw, and sits lower. The stock **** fits on the DC but not on the Skunk2. My Skunk2 **** discolored after a few weeks of use. Hope this helps.

C's Multiadjustable

Try godspeed.hack.net or A&J Racing

 

Not worth it... you don't need it any shorter.

 

I had a DC and just removed it in favor of my stock shifter w/ bushings...nice feel...not as short, but not notchy like the DC

 

I agree, and you could always get the Mugen shift ****, it sure feels better than the stock one. Not to mention the 5whp gain!

But if you must spend your money the C's are dope.

 

I installed the Energy Suspension shifter bushing, and love it...if I did go with a short shifter I would go with the C's shifter...you should have asked yesterday, as Reid(Akira R) has a short shifter that is made locally installed on his car.
Austin

 

I've got a C's on the way from IPS Racing. I'll let you know how it is.

 

Sean,

The C's is the same length as the stock R shifter, only the stroke is shorter.

You are welcome to try mine

 

Shane - I didn't mean that it was shorter in length. I would love to try it out.

 

C's. No question, no doubt, end of story.

Go buy one today!

And no, this is no joke.

 

had the dc..it hit my exhaust..hated it! stock feels 10X better...im gonna try the bushings next...that C's is supposed to be the chit!

 

Ive got the Skunk2 on my gsr and ive had no problems. Ive had it in for like 5 months now. It never rattles and the shifts are precise and not sloppy. The bushings helped the most tho. I like it.

 

EP, how could you put a DC ******* in YOUR car?

 

actually..it was on my gsrR..hahaha..

 

the dc does not have a shorter throw the skunk2 does, its made a whole lot better than the dc short shifter and sits as high as the stock one so that you don't have to reach down as far, and the only reason why it rattles is maybe you didn't tighten it enough or you didn't bend the exhaust hanger up alittle bit.
get the skunk2 heavier than the dc for a for precise shift, and better mad than the dc

 

Doesn't Cs make a shifter that sits higher than stock with a shorter throw? I've heard that a higher position is nice because of the shorter distance between the shifter and steering wheel.

 

i chnge the stock shift **** to a greddy SS **** and it shortened the throw (at leat it feels that way). plus i got about 15hp

 

I shift hard sometimes, i would be afraid of breaking the aluminum dc sports one. The skunk2 is is a nice hardend steel.

 

Love my C's, thanks Shane!

 

 

I have had my C's normal shifter for almost 5 years and I love!

The C's multi angle is straight up UNCLE BEN's! Rice I tell ya!! RICE!!

 

C's is THE standard. Try to find a short shifter in Japan that isn't a C's or made by C's. Pretty tough.

 

Just out of curiousity, what makes the C's short shifter so damn good as everybody says? Just the quality, design, or material etc.?
