Looking for a good short shifter that
Shortens throw, and is not shorter than the original shifter.
i want to move my arm as little as possible.
so if its higher and has less throw thats great

so you want a long penor with small head? lol!



most short shift kits aim to both lower the knob and tighten the throw angle .

May be worth looking at the americans - TWM and skunk2. If postage is a beast you may be able to go halvsies with connorling

whether or not it'll work with a bswap is a new beast..

If you want to pay a stupid amount, get the skunk2 everyone raves on about

Personally, I got a B&M short shifter for $30 delivered. Did the same shit, felt great along with ES shifter bushings and a weighted knob

You can also use one of these cheap shifter extensions for a bit more height

yes, this.

Borrow mine to try if you want. but if you're on a stock shifter you're gonna have a bad time

just looked on ebay for B&M some of them are gonna cost me same as skunk2 ones. skunk 2 almost works out cheaper, 100+30 shipping as opposed to 100+50 shipping lol.

the shifter bushings you change from underneath the car. remove the shift linkage and replace bushes at the gearbox end and shifter end with stiffer ES ones. takes the play out of your gearstick (no wobble in gear) and direct shift feel
