I haven't gotten my fidanza in yet but my ebay and isis felt fine.. Just swap that bushing thing on the bottom for a metal one or an oe... I like the way they feel compared to stock but i'm so used to short throws...

Deleted User	short throws are teh gheys. had one in my Z and i regretted buying it. i wont have one in my 40. do what kevin said and just rebuild the stock shifter. all new bushings will make a hell of a difference without having to go to super lame wrist shift status. .02

But usually they are offered in aluminum or steel when looking at Honda short shifters. Make sure you go with the steel IMO. Too many horror stories of people banging gears and the shifter breaking. Depending on where it breaks is the deciding factor of if you can make it home that night, or need a tow.

Kevin came over a few weeks ago was like damn this feels good and offered to trade me his nismo and i had to turn em down. lol
