What are the best short shifters for a 2.2?

I am in the market for a complete short shifter. Not a adapter. So which one is the best?

Make your own, cut off a few cm off the shaft, re-weld the mounting point and install. Just don't shift too roughly because its a lil hard on the cables...I've done this for a few MR2's with good success..if you could post a good pic of the stock shaft..i think i could tell you where to cut...

The weld is fine, but on one MR2, the shifter cables snapped because the cables are stretched tighter and the driver was a hard on the shift...since you have a 3.0..cutting the auto shaft will really make no difference..I have a RAZO quickshift and wanted to cut the shaft for a cleaner look but I didnt want to mess up any of the mechanism..
