Need some help Honda guys

my friend just bought a 94 civic hatch with a b18c5 and it needs a new shifter (short shifter) hes stuck and doesnt know whether to buy a shifter for the 94 civic or 01 Integra Type-R since thats what tranny is in the car.

If its a Type R tranny, then the smart choice would be for the Type R short shifter.

just get an after market short shifter for a type r...

better yet, tell him to buy my s2000 :thumbup:

Actually Frank is saying aftermarket short shifter.
I'm saying stock type R shifter.

But either way, we both say Type R parts.

[Francesco]

if you have an R tranny, you need R parts...

[LSHatch]

Civic short shifter.

type r short shifter

No. You are incorrect. Stop posting incorrect info.
The tranny type doesn't matter. If you were running an H22 or K20, it would be a different story.

so deffinitely go with a 94 civic short shifter hopper?

[LSHatch]

Yes. I hope you aren't buying some super expensive one. Go on Ebay and buy one of the $15 ones. They work exactly the same.

I personally hated the short shifter on my hatch. I had it one for about a week and took it off. The shifts get really notchy, it didn't like going into first gear as much.

Kevs right...


you would run the shifter for that make and model. EG and DC2..

Same chassis basically. Get a GSR shifter.. Works perfect, short shifters kinda suck.

The only difference is the bend in the shifter and since it is in a civic i believe he will need a civic shifter even tho its a typer trans. LSHatch is correct.

[S4toSTI]

I am sorry but this is a perfect example of people not knowing for sure and saying somehting. Could have just cost renn some money for no reason. I didn't say anything when i saw htis thread before cause i didn't know. This si somehting that is not an opinionbut it is someones money if you don't know butt out.

[LSHatch]

What are you talking about?

Misinfo was posted, I corrected it and others that are in the know also posted.

[JDMISACULT]

a short shifter is like a $20 item and can be returned not a big deal but he should use the civic shifter or its not going to work right

HAHA i wish but good luck with the shifter bro you got my .02 cents

[2000MRDC2]

I got a stock civic shifter and it works great

[AMF Racing]

get a shifter for the body style........also i recomend NOT getting one of those cheap ones, they always break. i swear by HURST short shifters, they are also taller than the others, yet keep a nice short throw. they are super strong and arent so short as to make shifting hard.

[92dxman]

I recommend a B and M short throw shifter. Mine was $39 bucks at some sight whose name is escaping me.
