Short Shifter?
Im buying a short shifter for my car but i dont know which one to get. I have the choice of the RX7 store short shifter or the B&A short shifter. Which one is shorter and better for quick fast shifts. Should i go for the more exspensive one or the cheaper one. thanks.

Pettit shifter has the shortest throws. Everything else shortens by 1/3. The only thing different between those is the price. I'd save your money and go with a B&M. I have one on my car and it does its job well. If you want the shortest throw available, go with a Pettit, but the thing's expensive if you're buying it new.

correction the shortest shifter you can buy for an FD is
the stillway sequential drag shifter (www.jt-imports.com).
very very expensive but you bearly have to move it and it
shifts. like in a rally car. nice but if you ask me it takes
the fun out of driving a standard.

Maybe a stupid question but does it have a really shortened shift or is it up,up,up to up shift then down, down, down to down shift? In stead of the up,down, up down way.
I didnt know how else to word it so pardon my dumb phrasing

I have one, and it's like a fine wine... it's getting better with age.
