If you have a welder, just cut off about an inch and re-weld it back together like I did.

Nothing beats free.

That's not a short shifter, that's a shorter shifter.

he's looking for an actual performance modification, like a SHORT THROW SHIFTER, I'm sure.

KFX Performance sells a good one, I assemble them and have 6 sitting here waiting to get shipped at any time.

I lowered my shifter since the stock one felt like I was driving a truck. Not only can I shift it quicker now, it looks way better being shorter.

I have never seen what the short throw shifter for the RD2 looks like so I can't really compare what I did to the real thing, but it's worth it if you have the tools and no $$.

Flag on the play, 5 yard penalty for gratuitous snapping

Hey ZMAN

Do these fit a 2001 Tiburon guaranteed? Is the shift knob included?
