I started this thread and ended up getting the Mazdatrix shifter. All I can say is read the disclaimer before you purchase. MY CAR IS THE 1 OUT OF 3. Link below!!!!

[QUOTE=GoodfellaFD3S]Jesus Christ, you payed $400 for a short shifter???
I have ran the Gotham shifter for over 3 years, no rattles at all. I have also driven a B&M in the past and thought it felt nice and tight.
Yes I did!! I did much research and found that many people were buying one brand or another, being unhappy and then trying a different brand. So I decided to go with the highest quality one available and being done with it. It functions beautifully. Smooth shifts, shortest throw available and its quiet.

I used to have the Pettit super short shift kit in my previous FD, but I hated it! It was so notchy that shifting betwen first & second required me to practically stop the hifter in the middle, then click it into second.
What shifter is as smooth as stock....just flows from one gear to the next without clicking from one to the other?

Related to rattle? I don't think I've seen this mentioned before so thought I'd throw it out there. When replacing my stock shifter with the Cs shifter, the very last piece I dug out of the stock unit tunnel was a shim/spring thing (like round shim except it was wavy thus creating a "spring" effect when the pieces install on top of it. Seemed like it made sense to leave it and I did. I wonder if some of the rattling shifters (of the mazdaspeed/Cs style) had this removed when installing? Just a thought. . .
