[http://www.fastlineperformance.com/shifter.htm](http://www.fastlineperformance.com/shifter.htm) A great idea for civic owners. I got a EG Hatch w/ no armrest/center console. With my seat back its hard to reach the shifter on the ground(stock location). I think I’m going to give this a shot. A seen on eon a delsol turbo @ flashlights, looked nice w/ a good throw. ---

A friend of mine locally who I race with has had this shifter on his CRX for a few years. Its alright, the throws on it are alot better than a stock shifter. Fairly smooth and not real notchy. But the actual distance the shifter travels (between 1st & 2nd for example) is shorter than stock, but longer than the DC short shifter in my car. ---

That’s probably Lostsolvtec from Honda-tech, red & boosted, I made the gauge pod for him… another guy I know had the same one on his integra ( I think it’s were the sol driver got the inspiration) The teg had around 400 hp, and he said it felt alot better to use than a short shift, 'cuz his hands were able to go from the wheel to the shifter and back faster.

But the actual distance the shifter travels (between 1st & 2nd for example) is shorter than stock, but longer than the DC short shifter in my car. If you have the same shifter and throw that Mark has in the green car, I do not like that at all. His is too short. I LOVE driving his car, but get scared at that shifter, that I’ll miss and break something. Part of the reason I won’t put a short shifter in the Civic. ---

I wanted one for my SRT and a bunch of tools on srtforums said wtf would you want that for. I tried to explain and like only one guy got it. Most people might call it stupid, but it works well from reviews ive seen on HT a few y ears ago. ---

When you swap an H into a civic and have to mount a shifter for cable shift, you can use an accord setup instead of a prelude.

I don’t care for the look of it myself, I feel like it needs to have an 8ball or skull on top of it like a rat rod! But it’s defintely the safest way to short shift a honda with an extreme amount of power. There’s just less time with your hands off the wheel. For everyday cruising, give me a sunken shifter… I loved the one in my del sol, the bottom of the knob was almost even with the top of the console… [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/civic-owners-check-this-shifter-out/185760.md?page=2)
