ummm just wondering do u know wut a short shifter is?
my guess is u think it quickens the shifting of the tranny with a computer or something
short shifter=small distance not time
only on manual cars
example is if ur shifts from neutral to 1st is 2 inches in throw length it will be shorten to 1 inch...not exact here so dont flame jus for example sake

Short shifters are always a plus, one of the greatest buys. If I buy another 240..I will have to get a SS because I'm so used to my Miata(short short throws)
