with the short shifter, do you have to reach lower as well after it's installed?

nope, not at all,

it reduces the throw, i.e the distance between 2nd and 3rd etc. If you take your stock shifter and put it next to your c's youll notice their exactly the same size however the angled bit at the bottom is angled more thus reducing the time it takes to enter each gear,

A short shifter is a must for everyone, every other gearbox feels no way near as solid as a gearbox with a short shifter when shifting gears.

well i am definitely not someone who is very mechanically minded but i put mine in yesterday by myself and i did it in just under half an hour, if i did it again i could do it in half the time! Would definitely recommend buying one, love driving the car even more now!

Yep the C's short shifter is awesome fitted mine in about 10 to 15mins very clever design and i'm very happy with the reason on my gtr r33

so you guys all have genuine C's short shifters? cos i've heard there a few knock-off abouts.

may i ask the price of these? can you get them for R34 GT-T's?

these aren't bad for the gearbox are they?

[Blade]

well mine came in the c's box and the warranty card and i bought it well before the cheap replicas became popular

Yes u can get them for 34's, the price varys as c's have stopped making short shift kits ages ago as they are bankrupt.

Yes they do **** your gearbox over time, but its worth it

i'm to came the same (dam big box for a shifter)

i got mine through a contact in japan (workshop)

if interested pm me and i can pass on his contact details

Real C's shifter wasn't cheap tho (top notch quality)

You say they **** your gearbox, but by what sort of span are we talking about here, and how exactly does the kit actually stuff the box up?

I have been interested in getting one of these into my r33 gts-t but i dont want it blowing my gearbox up.

short shifter will not damage a gearbox it only shorten selection which will not effort internal working at all.

as the short shifter reduces the travel between gears, it definately increases synchro wear, as you are shortening the selection, the synchros have less time to work, and more wear occurs.
