I can't seem to find any K-tuned short throw shifters I checked the website and even ebay. I came across the Skunk2 short throw shifter and I read a couple reviews saying it was good, anyone have any experience with them? Also from what I have read when I go to put in the new shifter I should replace the bushings, where would I be able to find those?

I have the skunk 2 single bend short shifter and I love it. I have a super sunk anvil shift **** that weighs just under a pound on it also. I have nothing but great things to say about my shifter. Another mod I highly advise while you're under the car is energy suspension polyurethane shifter bushings. Helps a ton.

I'm not a fan of skunk2, but their short shifter is amazing. I've used others (in other cars, not hondas) but its my personal favorite. I have the single bend short shifter in my 96 civic, much much shorter shifts. Got rid of a second gear grind as well haha. Skunk2, Buddy Club, B&M, etc all make good products, just make sure its a reputable company.
