C's short shifter specs
 
Hey all,

I bought a C's short shifter and have been using it for quite some time. I was wondering if anyone out there knows of or has the details of the screw threads.

What i have on there right now is one of those oem asian aftermarket replacement knobs - basically you find in any Pepboys/Trak Auto/Parts America. It's a plastic piece you slide over the top covering the original threads. You pick which one that fits the closest and then you put the replacement knob on top and use screws or whatever the kit comes and screw them all together. I would prefer to actually have a legit knob that will use the actual threads.

Any help would be appreciative. Thanks

regular FC shifter/knob threads are either 10x1.25 for S5 or 12x1.5 for S4

The brand name is actually called "C's" and I bought it off of ebay. Mazdatrix.com also sells their short shifter of similiar design. I found out that the guy selling the shifter lived in the same state as I lived, so i saved myself some $ on shipping and handling. He was cool and cut a 10-20$ off the top. As for quality or functionality and determining who is better, I wouldn't know - but having a short shifter in the car makes a world of difference.

Hope that helps you.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, the original FC knob won't fit. It's actually too big for the shifter. He ended up using electrical tape and taping the threads and then screwing the original knob on it.

YF19: Bring your car by the garage and I'll use the thread gauge on it.
