It depends on the short shifter used.

Revo has a unit that replaces the whole shifter unit. It reduces the motion needed to move the shift cable to the trans. Thus resulting if faster shifts for racing.

Then there is the adapter short shifters
these do the same thing.

I'll find pics

ohh ok.. so does it make the shift thingy any lower.. i saw a car with a little nub sticking out.. looked pretty kewl. wodnered how he got that. i guess if i bought the repalcement i could jsut cut it shorter?

(had tow ord the above carefully with out getting giggles)

Some people cut the shifter lenght, which is really for appearence only.

But a short shifter just reduces the shifting lenght between gears.

With the revo, the shift lever is about 1-1.5" shorter.

In older models integras and civic that would be a short shifter.

The Revo SS is basically the stock shifter with a couple inches cut off the top of the post. I love my Revo but would have preferred to save the $90 and cut and rethread the stock shifter. Also, with the Revo, get Grey's kit (or just replace the cotter pins) or your leather boot may get ripped.

i would go with the viscous tech adapters, the length of the stick doesnt change but, the foward and side throws are shortened significantly.
