What's the point. OEM throw is awesome on the DC2R. I have driven DC2R with short shift and it's crap. If your car is for drags then perhaps it's beneficial. Otherwise... I think it's a waste of money.

But yes, stock is pretty good as it is.

Agreed. The throw on the OEM DC2R is better than anything else that is aftermarket. I've tried quite a few that B&M ones okay but stock still feels better.

SS puts extra stress on your box.. And that thing gets put under enough stress as is..

vtir and type r shifter are indentical.............

the reason i say this.

is i stufed mine ages ago and my mate at honda checked them for me on there price and parts listing.........lol

onyl difference are the linkages and the gearbox and the knob........lol

[Dean Machine]

oh really? shit i gotta say but the shifter on my b18c2 is pretty small anyway i wasnt sure how much shorter you could get with it..

[b18boy]

They key is not reducing the height, its reducing the throw.

Making it shorter wont improve anything apart from looking sick bro

[DLO01]

Not exactly. If a taken shfter was shortened in height you do in fact decrease the throw. But the effort in making the shift will also be increased.

[l3vnd1]

Spot on Dean.

More force is required closer to the pivot point in order to shift. This is the pay off for a shorter throw.

friend had a vti-r, jumped in my car and drove my dc2r..1st thing he said was "omg the shifting is so short compared to his vti-r" -shrugs-

[6thgear]

i'd say if you have a dc2r, no need for an aftermarket short shifter, its already perfect! if you have another spec dc2 for that matter, go and get one!

Yeh that is true, When i had my r33 it was shortened and it did reduce throw slighty but the way it shifted through gears was sh*t which was more noticable than any feeling of reduced throw.

Anyways like everyone said the type R shifter is great stock, go with some handling mods rather than fiddling with things that don't need to be touched.
