What short shifter would most of you go with or have, i am looking at B&M for its short throws but is there shorter?

 

Shorter isn't always better.

But b&m does make an adjustable that can reduce throw 45%, I think thats the shortest they make for evos.

 

how about kartboy?????????

 

I suggest driving your Evo for a while after you get it before deciding on mods such as this. Don't get impatient.

 

warr, do you even recommend a short throw shifter? and can you reuse the stock IX MR shirt knob with it?

 

i think the factory MR shifter is perfect

 

ya the factory evo shifter is better, well thats what i heard

 

i believe right now the only people doing short shift conversions for the MR are works.

i think it is due to the collar to keep you from accidentally going into reverse when shifting for 6th.

and last i read it is an in house thing with only them, and authorized works dealers.

 

Its not that its better. Its all a matter of preference really. Short shifters are notchy to me. A counter weighted shift knob can help make the shift easier but I am ok with the stock shifter.


EvilEVO800hp, Warrtalon is right, I think you should get an Evo before you even start planning mods.

 

There were none available to me when I had the 6spd. Now that I have a 5spd, I may try one, but the 5spd shifter is already shorter than my 6spd. It is also funny that I still have my 6spd knob on my 5spd, hah.

 

i was actually thinking about getting a short shifter becasue my first gear like pops out....

 

That's not because of the shifter...

 

why do you have the 5 speed?

 

counter weight'ed shift knob?? can you point us/me in the direction to where i can find them. i would like to see the different styles and who makes them.

does cartboy make them??

 

Kartboy makes them, so does Greddy, Works and a bunch of others. Try a search on here. You can probably find a few for sale.
