Neuspeed short shift kit ! good or bad buy

I know it isn't a turbo or anything but I think the Neuspeed short shifter kit is a good buy for the money!
I love the tighter feel when I shift! I know that I have it in gear.
And it reduces my throw about 50% !!
What does everybody else think about it?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

They all shorten the throw by approximately the same amount anyway. So whatever floats your Civic man

hey man, I just got it on like yesterday too... I duno about the thrown distance, its rather disappointing.. I guess I was expecting too much?

IMO, from what I've seen, none of the short shifters will do that much... even the revo... the bottleneck itself is still in how the cable transmission was made... they can only change the pivot points so much to shorten it...

I kinda got jibbed cuz I paid like 92 for it.. (lil piece of metal. lol)

it does work, but I duno if its worth its price.

its a bit stiff too.. but yeah, I KNOW it when I have it in gear. really firm now, doesn't feel lose at all... so I suppose I'll grind less now since I can really feel it getting in gear now..

but, if u want a short shifter without lower ur stick height, this is the way to go... if u want the stick height to be lowered, go with the Revo SS. its 80 bucks shipped at the site listed in the parts section (I could have saved 12 bucks. damn.)

personally, for the price I paid, its a bad buy. I'd rather get Brembo rotors for that 92 bucks. but, its there. so yeah...

oh yeah, u gotta drill it in too. I think I'll write a review.

yea, for short shifters, brand names are a waste of money. How can a brand name short shifter be that much better than a generic one? save your money and buy some cheap generic short shifter. result: save money, same result
