just wanted to say that c's did a frickin awsome job designing these. no rattles, perfect fitment, and works AWSOME. i am very happy i purchased on of these.

only thing i can say that feels a little undesirable, is getting into reverse. its quite stiff. has anyone else encountered this, and possibly found a fix?

thanks!

eh, i have the same problem with my mazda trix short shifter, getting it into reverse or 5th actually

 

cool, it seemed normal but i thought maybe i mis aligned something, or something along those lines.

anyways,

im very pleased with it

the only short shifter im going to buy is the mazdaracing one

 

uh... okay.

 

congratulations.

 

How many of those shims or what ever you want to call them did you use? Mine came with 2 so i put them both in and it was really stiff so i took one out until everything got worked in then i put the 2nd one back in and its perfect.

 

ummm.. u meen the two thick metal peices? - yeah i put them both in.. if u put only one in it would change everything.. i think it will just take a few days to work itself in.

but its frickin awsome.. kinda like driving a different car. .. once i get suspension done, it will be a whole different car.

 

yah those things. it should take about a week or so to loosen up it depends on how much you drive. it will be fine.

yah the shifter is frickin awsome i got mine before i went on a 15000km or so road trip in the summer and i loved it.

 

c's short shifter??? who makes it and weir did you order it from

 

C's makes it...

Currently its available at http:/www.rx7.com

 

from what i hear the best short shifter for the FC
now that i have tried it, i would have too agree.

 

Mines an Okada Engineering Short Shifter. Throw was decreased like 55%, but freakin stiff as hell on all gears. You need a buff right arm just to shift

 

my rx 7 t2 came with a stock shifter cut down with a b&m shift **** it was hard to shift so i put on the stock one until i get used to shifting since its my first manual tranny once i get used to it i am thinking about getting the c's short shifter

 

I've got the mazdatrix one. I like it, but it's the only one I've tried. Way better than stock, and I like the crispness; it's a lot less vague. (and my stock shifter had good bushings, less than 2 years old)
