right now i got a dc sports single bend and i like it but im thinking about going to a double bend becasue i have heard there a better design...i was thinking about skunk2 or evasive but i dont know ....what do you guys got and how do you like and dislike them

 

I'm using a skunk2 double bend short shifter with the skunk2 ****. Awesome combo.
The double bend is better cause it makes the shifter **** closer to you. Don't have to reach as far to shift into gears. Especially fifth gear.

 

stock gsr shifter ownz joo


i personally like to keep my synchros

 

skunk2 dual bend

what do you mean about keepin the syncros??

 

as long as youre responsible w/ the short shifter and dont slam gears all the time its fine to have a short shifter

 

B&M with the metal bushing kit. Nothing it more solid

 

i think that i might go with the skunk2 i got the dc and thats a great shifter but i dont like the single bend.. especially from 1st to 2nd gear

I'm running an integra dual bend shifter on my car as well...problem is though that with the d-series engines you have to bend the linkage out to make it fit. I'm gonna be trading with a friend for a d-series DC shifter soon with ES bushings...i'll let you all know how it is.

That's funny! I don't like it when things **** close to me.

I have a DC single bend with MOMO ****. It does just fine and as long as you aren't stupid you won't going to ruin anything in your tranny.

energy suspension shifter stablizer bushings $13 shipped



i'm sick of hearing that short shifters damage synchros... if you slam your car in gear, with any type of shifter, it will cause damage to the synchros... don't drive like your at the track, if you aren't at the track, and your synchros will be fine...

 

imo Skunk 2 is top quality

i was gonna change out my APC short shifter for this....height wise they're the same thing and i too enjoyed my synchs.....this with some $15 shifter bushings should make for a great ride

on another note, did anyone notice you can't use your stock bearings with the GSR shifter? how did you guys remedy this....does the GSR shifter bearings fit into the EG linkage where the bolt goes through?

 

shifters do not ruin your synchros, drivers do.

Edit: I have been using my dc s.s for over 2 years with out any problems.

Edelbrock shifter and ****, hard anodized!

I had carbon coated synchros put in my tranny to handle quick shifts, say goodbye to gear grinds! I can't shift fast enough now to be able to grind.

edit: also have the energy suspension bushing kit!
