I would like to know what you people know. Some people have told me that if you put on a short shifter it could potentially do something to break your transmition. All my friends that have them haven't had a problem. I just didn't want to take any risks because I need a daily driver.

Thanks

 

just do it , worry about the problem when it happens................jk, i have no idea...i've never heard of that before.

 

some people say itll kill synchro's faster...i say its a waste of money...only thing thats gunna make your shifts quicker is you...and more directly, your foot.

 

I would recommend getting the Symborski shift kit from MachV. Its about $35 and gives a much better feeling from the shifter. Eliminates some of the mushiness caused by the stock rubber bushings.

 

I already bought the shift kit and I really liked it. I was just wondering if I should get a short shifter. Since I am not making my car a race car, just making it quicker.

 

My shifter is cut and i havent noticed any ill effects. Either get one pre-made or have your stocker cut. Just dont go too crazy and cut it too short

 

K, thanks. I appreciate the info.

 

Adding a short shifter for me was a requirement. The one that I p/u dropped the height by about 1.5". I could've chopped the OEM stick, but I wasn't comfortable with the idea. Plus the labor would've cost me just as much as the new shifter.

 

If you tighten the knob a few extra turns, that will shorten the throw a little bit and the shifter won't look near as high as before.

 

"im cut"
goin 3rd to 4th is as simple as moving ur fingers from straight out, to not even makin a fist, dont even have to move my arm,lol
