[http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MK2-SHORT-SHIFTER-89-98-240SX-S13-S14-SILVIA-SR20DET\_W0QQitemZ8050470392QQcategoryZ33736QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MK2-SHORT-SHIFTER-89-98-240SX-S13-S14-SILVIA-SR20DET_W0QQitemZ8050470392QQcategoryZ33736QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

looks similar to b&m, compared to lets say the other 90% which have a cup and holddowns… opinions?

Just cut your shifter by like 3 inches and you’ll have a short shifter. Literally. :lol:

Contact Varun, aka slipperysilvia here on SON, and grab a Megan. I had one in my 240 and loved it. There was no problems, it’s a solid one piece shifter and it’s very percise. The through was approx 40% shorter.

I liked it so much I’m getting one for my Skyline. 😃

There’s not much point in buying one (just b/c your poor) now, only to most likely get rid of it later on for a better one. Save your coin for a little while longer and get something you’ll be happy with. Varun’s prices are really good to begin with and you won’t be dissapointed.

Just some advice. 😃

Take care.
