Do short shifters really help out a lot during a race????

 

How do you get the picture of your car to show up in your signature???

 

lol you have a picture in your sig...and i would say that it does help out...my friend has a gold with a short shifter and he says its ****ing so much better

 

it helps alot dude if your thinking of buying go with a b&m trust me on this one. Your throws will be shorten by 35%. for now just double clutch it's cool

 

well there are other ones but the b&m is suppose to be the best

 

Tight i will look into the B&M shifter how much do those run?

 

these shifters will get ya done!!!!

The short throw is a lot better for racing, and they are more durable.... if you are pounding the stock shifter, it will wear out fast. TORE my STOCK shifter up in about 6 mos ( a lot of track time and street too lol)

UPR makes a great shifter:
