Higher Shifters?

[Luis]

My homeboy was a DA with a shifter thats higher than stock. I htink he said he pulled it off of his old 94 civic. Where else can you get these shifters? heres a pic i googled http://www.heeltoeauto.com/files/Thu...shifter_eg.jpg

why would you want a higher shifter? its not like your racing nascar

A higher shifter will also make the throw (from gear to gear) longer.

I predict your arm will get tired after driving in the city for an hour.

DO you really want be driving a family car that has a Higher shifter like a truck?

Guess you want to monster truck then

[wed3k]

if your arm gets tired after driving a manual for an hour, you probably shouldnt be driving a manual.

short throw and a longer shifter would pretty much cancel each other out. sometimes i rest my hand on the shifter as well.

A higher shifter is nicer for driving through turns.

+1. my friend had an auto x ef hatch type r swapped. he had a skunk2 short throw with some weird 6 inch shifter extention. the shifter it self cut the throw some with the extension. it was odd driving it, but through corners it made a difference. the distance from the wheel too shift knob wasnt much.


aside from that it was like driving an old toyota truck, lol.

or you can attempt to make your own. i don't imagine it'd be that hard with the right set of tools and a hardware shop.

thats exactly the point of it, shorter distance from wheel to shifter to keep your hands on the wheel more, which 2 hands on wheel means more control of the car

Thank you! That's exactly why I want it so my hand can be close 2 my steering wheel. There's some crazy drivers in the west hollywood area where I work @
