Re: short shifter?

You’d probably have to start with a shifter box from an RSX. If I recall correctly, there was nothing for the civic when I was looking for one.

Re: short shifter?

Revo techinica was the go-to. Still $100

https://www.autodynamic.com/revo-tec...nsmission.html

had it in my EM2. Solid shifter. Decreases throw by some 20% and height by 1.5" or so. Find you some aluminum shifter bushings to make it even better

edit: I had the first version of this shifter. The current version is adjustable (the oval slot on the outboard side, you can shorten the throw even more)

edit 2: 0% to 40% throw reduction and confirmed 1.5" height reduction, per Revo's website. Drop in installation. I did it in a parking lot inside of 15 minutes.

To be fair, I really only got back on the forum after I got the EG, which was post-EM2

Re: short shifter?

I never sold you the revo ss. It was a short shift adapter set. The revo was on the car when it was donated. I bought that adapter set to see if it could be used in tandem with the revo and it couldn't. lol

edit: I was gonna say "don't mind me, I'm in a stupid mood today" after posting that first gif, but no need at this point. One of my old Navy buddies (I DJ'd his wedding) found me on Reddit and we've been catching up after losing contact, ****, a decade ago. Anyways, back on topic. I'm derailing this too much. lol

Other short shifter options: GO!

Re: short shifter?

There is another short shifter option (made for RSX, but 01-05 civic non hatchbacks and RSX shift assemblies are interchangeable), but holy hell, it retails for a moderate $419 (for the 4-way adjustable version)

https://acuityinstruments.com/produc...swaps-and-more

and here's acuity's less spendy (but still $370) 2-way adjustable one
