Whats the best short shifter? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

And is a short shifter really worth it. I love my s13 but the tranny feels so sloppy and rough compared to my friends '93 prelude vtec which is the only car in the same class i have to compare it to. Feels really chunky and soft. Anyone else know what im tlakign about? Any way to fix this?

I got the OBX from PDMracing, its pretty cool now that i'm used to it. It feels like shit if you don't put it in right though <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> FYI: if your not sure whether or not its in right, don't use locktight...

Just a personal note.  =)
If u want short, avoid Nismo Solid Shift (the short shifter is good though)
I have the solid shift, and I was sort of disappointed at first (was sold as short shift).. but to be honest, I love it...  a bit shorter, big crisper and more precise.. Good alternative to short shifter... Definate upgrade, just not noticeable untill you really get into it..
