short shifter
« on: February 08, 2011, 07:31:43 pm »
Going to order some ds250 pads tomorow from jkm if i remember and was thinking about getting a short shifter at the same time. Do they improve things that much and in your opinion are they worth it.
thanks

I'm running the both the forge short shifters. One of the best mods in my opinion to. Take into consideration that if you've got the plastic side-to-side shifter arm then you may also need to get the adjustable shifter due to clearance issues (I think, was well over a year ago I had mine so I can't remember the exact reasons), but even if you have the metal arm, I'd still get it as it still improves it further.

I have the forge one as well, like it, though it does take a little getting used to, and if your wife drives your car then be prepared for moaning...I got that anyway. :wink:
