Is a shortshifter a must have for Manual owners?

Civic Pride · 12-23-2006, 09:03 PM

Am asking this because TWN performance is having a sale on the shortshifters and bushings for like 88 bucks, and i want to know if a shortshifter is a must have, if i don't get the short shifter i will probably buy some decals (SOH i-vtec) and the Si grill for my car - the Si badge, and something to smoke my headlighs..

yes..its worth it...... but get the comptech

Yes! It makes shifting more fun. I think either Comptech or TWM would be fine. With TWM, you can also get the shifter base bushings. I got the Comptech before TWM came out with their product.

yes get the comptech one but why would you want to put an si badge on your car if your gonna do that might as well think big and use a type r badge.

oh sorry sir but it doesnt say "minus" anyway the only difference between the two is that the twm one comes with bushings besides that its probably the same the both reduce by 22%

aodmisery · 12-23-2006, 09:16 PM

hardest part of the install was the stupid blue cap (i didnt drop it though) you gotta pry off.

Civic Pride · 12-23-2006, 09:21 PM

Actually i did said - the si badge if you read it again you will see, and am going to oder the sortshifter right now, thanks for all your guys help.

aodmisery · 12-23-2006, 09:23 PM

I saw his minus symbol. We sure don't want this to turn into another one of those discussions.

Oh yeah. I dropped that f**ker down into the console and made a 10 minute job into an hour job because I had to figure out how to remove the console with my limited mechanical skills
