[plAythiNG]

Hey guys, im thinhking of getting the BuddyClub Short Shifter for my Type S.

Did a quick read on the net, some people have gotten aftermarket shifter bushings also..

Is this really relevant?

Anyone else running a SS kit on their DC5?

haha! well pspec is by far the best!

u can adjust the throw and adjust the height of the shifter!

the shifter is weighted aswell! and you get the bushings to change on the stock shifter too!

if i keep my car, thats my next mod! always wanted to do it!..

I think the R has metal bushings already. I'm not sure about the S though.

I think you have the wrong term. Short shifting is when you change gears earlier than required. e.g changing at 6,500rpm when redline is 7,900rpm. You may be referring to flat shifting where you change gears without stepping off the throttle.

I think he was actualy talking about "short shift kits"... not short shifting like you've explain above.

Apparently the short shift kit adds more stress to the gearbox (From what I've been told with a quick chat to my mechanic about it). It was a while ago, and it was only a quick chat so I'm not 100% sure about it.

A perfect example of providing the right amount of info if you expect someone to answer correctly.
