Short Shifter in Melbourne

Postby SILK99 » Tue Jan 15, 2013 6:08 pm

So yeah i'd love to get a short shifter in my VRX. Was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for where i could not only get the part but get it installed also. (i'm no mechanic, can't do this stuff myself)

And generally if anyone knows how much this might cost me

Thanks

Please DIY it... Its a good experience, and with the exception of some washers that gave me trouble its damn easy too.
You're probably going to have to buy from overseas or ebay to get one though.

this is the one i got :)

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/190607723331 ... 036wt_1186

offer him 60$, and postage is 17 and 77$ you got your self a short shifter.
i actually thought it was that hard to install it but you get instructions and from there its just basic stuff :) everything is just clips and screws.
only hard bit was the getting these little rings off! gotta luse a flat head and hammer them out or break them. and replace them with the ones you get.

first time doing it, took about 1 hour :D

SST is the shortest a shifter could get! :mrgreen:

If those aftermarket ones can make the gear changes Honda-slick, then they're awesome. It would make your three-pedal effort even more rewarding.
