is there anyone who makes a short shifter which replaces the whole gearstick assembly?

The only place that is still in business is Forbidden Motorsports, but good luck getting one from them... Worse customer service than Tegiwa :roll:

Your best option is to modify an OEM one or hope for a second hand one I'm afraid.

Performance aftermarket parts for a lesser known Honda model that never had a TypeR edition? That's probably one reason :P

I've seen some smart looking shifter for other cars :) The one in the link looks like something i could make at work for free ;)

Make it for free then ;)
Isn't most of this hidden underneath a gaitor anyway?

yeah i probably will, or as Rob has said i might modify a stock shifter :)

I wanted to go for the stripped out look with no gaiter etc which is why i wanted a smart looking one but i might have to have a rethink.
