Question I have a question that needs an answer! :)

...as do most questions, I guess. Anyway, I was looking into getting a short shifter for my 03 civic. What is the best way to...shorten...my shift... o.0 Would you suggest a short shifter (around 110.00 for 03 civic) or is there something better?

I heard of people having the REVO SS with an adapter.
Another thing you might want to consider of buying is a bushing kit.
I forgot who on this site sells them.

Just get the revo ss from tornactive(use the discount code 7thgen5off) 90.00ish shipped.
you don't need an adapter. other things that compliment the shifter are Grey's upgrade kit and cap yoda's bushings.

i don't see the need to spend money on these. they don't make a difference realy. they "stiffen" the shifting, but how does that help? what is that going to do for you? i like the little 1/2" of play, it makes for smoother shifting.

i guess, whatever though. they only cost like $6, so it's not a loss at all. my$.02

No it changes the linkage so all the throws are shortened. I had the DC adaptor and really didn't like it. the revo is much better.
