diy $3.60 short shifter..

[dj_ender]

Take a picture... I'm curious to see how you did it. Is the throw still noticeable shorter?

They are in my MRT and yes its about 2 inches shorter either way. The reason I didnt have to cut it or anything was because my piece doesnt stick forward as much as the other DIY piece.

Will 1992 front bumper fit on 1990 accord.

Hey guys i just bought a accord and the whole dront bumoer is like gone. It was in accident. I tried looking for 1990 bumper but no luck found couple of the 92s will those fit.

How does this apply to a short shifter?

Also, why is the short shifter thread in the appearance section anyway?

Nice DIY I would like to try this but too bad I'm automatic no kudos for me i guess

Because it makes oneself look cooler to everyone else when they can shift a fraction of a second sooner than the other guy. Hence, being posted in the appearance section. Fuck man, where you been under a rock?

Just to chime in, I did a FREE DIY and I have no notchiness or grinding, but I also bent the right side of the brace that hold both shift cables and the stiffness of the shifts went away, feels similar to stock now.

I know this is old...but I'm trying to see what you mean by bending the bracket...I'm sure if I look down it'll be self explanatory....

The right part of the bracket, where the cable goes thru. If you bend the tab towards the front of the car, it will make the cable bind less, and make it less "notchy".

Ok...I'll give a try...I'm so used to my SRT, you can actually buy a complete shifter asembly that doesn't affect the throw/engagement. So only having a bracket or assembly is the only option for this car kinda blows

It's much easier/safer to use a shifter from a 92-96 prelude, and it's shorter.

would it have to be the whole assembly or just the shifter rod?

Some people have said you can just grab the rod and swap it into the Accord shifter plate. I've never done it, I grabbed the whole shifter and plate bushings. MAKE SURE YOU KEEP THE CABLE FASTENING HARDWARE, IIRC they are different.
