what's up folks. I was wondering where I could get a short shifter. I know the ones from a 97 or so accord would fit but I wnated to know what you guys have and or recomend.

thanks

 

I think a shifter from a 92-96 prelude VTEC + the ebay short shifter mod is your best bet. Someone on here did it but I can't remember. Do a search for Prelude shifter.

 

92-96 lude shifter will work & 94-97 accord adapter

 

WRONG.

you use the 92-96 lude shifter adapter on the 92-96 lude shifter...
94-97 accord adapter works on stock shifter.

hey Scott whens the N00b guide going to get done?


P-spec and forbidden racing short shifters are direct swaps with hammering down some tabs on the shift plate.


i have the lude shifter in my car works great.

 

thanks I checked it out.

 

d98clturbo was the first one on the board to put in the lude shifter BTW.

 

I have the pspec tuning shifter but I think the prelude swap is much cheaper

 

so get everything including the stick? or can I keep mine?

 

here is the breakdown...

you dont need the whole shift linkage... just the shifter itself... stock shifter knob works fine since it is the same exact one as the lude shift knob.

 

Oh fu sho'.
I'd have been the asshole to get the whole linkage. thanks alot

 

exactly, i also have the 92-96 lude shifter in my whip and it i'm very happy with it. Just remember to hammer the plates down!

And i recommend doing this process slowly otherwise your just going to end up with the same length throw but a shorter looking shifter

good luck!

 

u didnt hammer the plates all the way down? if you dont every time you shift it hits the metal tabs... the throw is still shorter with the shifter because of where the shifter cables attach to the stick.

i just bought the prelude adapter on ebay. just something little since im bored... ill let you know if its worth it.

i wasnt trying to imply that the adapter would work with the shifter, but that both would work

 

what about the short shifter dc makes for the 94- 97 accord?

 

it will work

 

my bad i misinterpreted.
