Short shifter mess up sycro's over time?
Short shifter bad for tranny? The reason i'm asking is because i want to get the REVO SS, but if its gonna eat up my tranny then I prolly won't.

Rep Power: 0 i was sort of wondering that myself. since i had my revo my shifts feel harder, i dunno. its def. much better distance wise.......but you can actually hear it shift sometimes. ive been looking into this alot. the syncros for our cars are so small and weak. it doesnt take much to grind one down to nothing.
Ask me about your mom.

Rep Power: 316 The only real reason why it would shorten the life of your syncro's is because you feel more confident/cocky when you drive. If you start throwing down any sort of fast shifts, then of course you're going to shorten the life of the sycnro's.
THink about it, even if it was stock...would YOU, or your GRANDMA go through a clutch faster? obviously YOU, because your grandma granny shifts [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
