diy $3.60 short shifter..

[fenderninja]

i just removed the console, this includes the part around your e-brake.
4 bolts total. Then took the shift knob off and the rest is kinda obvious.
un mount the cable where its existing, and thread your leading bolt through it about an inch or so up. clamp the rear bolt down real tight and reassemble!

do they not make a short shifter for the cb7...

[bcjammerx]

not specifically. the prelude one can be made to work.

I'm sure on ebay you can get some shifter bars that are shorter and have the mount welded lower as well.

But why pay 50-100 + when you do it yourself for under $5? Plus, you won't see the hardware when you put the boot back on...so who needs a pretty part that is never seen ever

i've drove my old accord where i had done this, and fo4r the price it's pretty ok.

but when i had baught a PSpec short throw shifter, their really was no comparisson in the difference, pspec shifters are just emaculately tight and smooth. I like their weighted handle that can be baught with the kit as well.

man i might have trouble doing this

if you have trouble just ask cause its not that bad at all.... undo the six screws that hold the center console down. then undo the nut that hold the shifting linkage. install the ground connector thing and then bolt the linkage to the ground connector and reinstall center console

just did this today, not a bad little mod. fun too!

Pros: feels tight
short throw
solid
fun
cheap

Cons:rubs interior of center console
cheap

overall, worth it if your a cheap ass like myself lol. i think this will do until i work on something a little nicer like a prelude setup or forbidden shifter if i can find one.
if you attempt this, make sure to buy fender washers so the cable wont slip off the rubber bushing, that happened to me while i test drove it.
enjoy.
