No body likes the custom truck short shifter - wtf??? Fastline sells them for $150, and I made mine for about $15 (had to buy another stock shifter off ebay). Someone else has the Fastline one - is it redrum? It is soooo comfy. ---

It IS a shorter throw. I can’t find a pic of the comparison, as their website is down right now. Lets put it this way: A stock shifter is 10" from the ball(pivot point) to the tip, and 2" from the ball to the shift rod. My shifter is about 18" on the top and @4.5" on the bottom. So, for those of you that are math challanged, stock shifter = 10/2, or 5:1, and mine is 18/4.5, or 4:1, which ultimately yields a shorter throw. Plus the handle is right next to the steering wheel, which means less time with my hands off the wheel. I know it looks wierd, but it works very well. I had an ebay short shifter and it was uncomfortable to have to reach down so far. Now I can just lean back and enjoy it. ---

gotcha, thats cool then, if it is actually a shorter throw then i feel like that would be really comfy. ive never driven a civic daily so idunno how it would feel to have the shifter really low but it seems somewhat inconvenient ---
