An aftermarket Honda Civic short shifter is a great replacement for a worn out or sloppy factory shifter, and will provide a sportier feel while changing gears.

Using a new Honda Civic short shifter can take a little bit of getting used to, but once you do you'll be impressed with how precise your shifts now are. A short shifter is much more than a shortened lever.

A true short shifter repositions the fulcrum point of the shifter so that gear changes can be made with less actual throw, resulting in faster and more precise shifting.

Faster shifting, of course, results in faster driving, which is especially important if you happen to drive your ride on the track every so often. A few Honda Civic short shifters are even available with an adjustable lever, which allows you to fine-tune the length and throw of the shifter. Q: How do you install a short shifter?

A: Short shifters are installed by removing your factory shift lever from your transmission. This process works for any Honda or Acura that uses a rod shifter. While doing this project, you may want to consider installing upgraded bushings for the linkage since everything will be easily accessible. At this point, you need to determine if you want to completely remove the shift linkage from the car.

If you do not want to remove all of the linkage, skip to removing the bolt that attaches the shifter to the shift rod. Newer civics have a plastic piece around the ball of the stock shifter that the 5th and older generations don't have. Last, push the shift change rod back on and reinstall the mm nut and bolt.

If you took off your exhaust, rebolt it up. Reinstall your shift knob and test it out. Short Shifter,Shifting Issues Does anyone have the problem of the short shifter not fully engaging the gears?

It works better to go from neutral to 2nd and then 1st, before letting up on the clutch. Also it seems to "click" into each gear and not a smooth shift like most shifters. And it grinds the gear a little when shifting into 5th at high rev around 5k-7k rpm. Can anyone help me diagnose this issue as I'm just getting into the modding scene. The ES bushings made a huge difference. I did not have to remove the exhaust. I did however have a problem with the shift linkage being too close to the exhaust and causing a rattle.

There are 2 counter-weights on the end of the linkage. I ended up taking a dremel to the longer weight and cutting about an inch off at an angle so the linkage would clear. This does not appear to have created any problems.

If shift effort were increased I could have gone with a heavier knob. I am very pleased with the shifter. Throws are short and crisp now. Buy a short short shifter, get some bushings to go along with it, raise ur car, and figure it out I'm a freakin nurse, not a mechanic and I could figure out.

Look at the parts you have in ur hand and replace the old ones that look like it Sorry I know my 'explanation' wack, but really dude, it's super simple Hint: The more you raise ur car, the better it'll be to work underneath
