    Looking awesome pico! It's nice that it's red so it goes with the rest of your accent.

    Stock shifter is out and you can see the difference between stock and modified

    Before

    After

    I'll have a few more pics of in a bit when I'm done.

    I think since the angle of the rod is cut down and rewelded in place the throw will be different also. where if you just cut the shifter shorter and rethread the shaft for the knob the throw would be the same.
    Does that sound right?

    Considering the elbow and pivot look to be in the same place, how is that any different from just cutting down the shifter and rethreading it?
    Still shortens the throw slightly but that's not what everyone thinks of as a short shifter.

    Thats what im not sure about, you guys are possibly correct, and if there is no difference at least my shift rod will sit lower and feel better when shifting IMO

    Re: My '89 LX-i Build

    Just came back from a short drive, there is a difference in shifting and the way the shifter sits is way better than stock height.
    I'm real happy with it. (I need to clean the dust out of interior)

    Re: My '89 LX-i Build

    the shifter has a shorter throw, it can be modified again to accommodate what you guy's are all saying also.
    I am happy with my shifter and i feel it does me right even at the drag strip.

    Pico are you truly happy with what you got and did i mislead you in any way?

    Feels so much better when I shift, and the throw is different than stock.

    Wow it's been forever since I've been on. 6 months? 8 months? Anyway your thread is up to 41 pages and your car is looking fine as ever. Keep up the good work.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM
