mr180sx is right, its a much nicer feel with the standard shifter based on my experience.
cheers for the reply :D

theres no problem with getting a short shifter. a good quality one is weighted properly so it doesnt damage the gearbox. this is why cutting a stock shifter is a big no no
I had a short shifter in my prelude that had the type s h22a, I had a Skunk2 short shifter in it and it felt amazing to change gears with, when I bought my new car which is a civic with the type s h22a in it, it did not have a short shifter. Personally the difference i noticed was a fair bit and I got the bloke who I bought the car off to drive my prelude back to my house and when he got out he said shifting felt awesome in it.
I think like mentioned before in the thread a good quality one is key here to making it feel right.
