Hey guys, whats going on? I have a question. My 90 GS-T as well as everyone elses has an extremely long shifter throw. Although it is butter smooth, I am **absolutely feigning** a short throw shifter. I dont mind cutting the rod, and a different knob will help as well but I want something that just goes from gear to gear with the 'flick of the wrist.'

I know ebay sells short shifters but im not quite sure if they work. I have heard that they work with some modification, but im not sure how much is involved and im not quite sure even if they work at all! If I can verify that the ebay shifter does work, then I am ready to buy one at a moments notice.

Does anyone else have any other suggestions? Thanks smile.gif

most of your extra long throw comes from the stock excecivly long shift knob i put a tenzo R wieghted shift knob on my 92 gsx. even though it isn't extreamly short, but still shorter. and not requiring much more force to shift good for everyday driving and hard driving situations.
