I bought a Fidanza throw-shifter for my 95 gs-t and it gave the car a sporty feel, easy to install with no problems shifting at all when i installed it i changed the bushings  |

Ok, I can't bother reading through this entire thread so here is my question.
Does the B&M clone shifter lowers the shifter height? Answer - No.
Edit: I already got an answer to my question Defiant. No need to edit my post to prove a point.

Gosh, that's tough. Why the hell do you think all these questions were put in the same thread?
If you can't search, just read.  |

Has any one ever used the Fidanza Short Throw Shifter?... If you have one , would you recommend it?...
I was thinking about buying one because I don't wanna fork up the 160.00 bucks for the B & M!!
Uh... yeah.

who did you get it from? avoid seller epartsgogo. he's the one who sent me just the 2 main pieces, and when i sent him a picture of what i received, he sent me 3 random bolts. now he says he'll accept a return if i give him my part number and pay to ship it all back... |

For those that are wondering....
turboimport . com has the cheapest Real B&M I have seen. $139.00.
I have ordered from them before, always in good condition and they ship fast.

B&M vs. Ralco vs. Fidanza short shifter 2g
hey guys... I was looking to get a short shifter for my eclipse gs-t. It's a 1997, but the shifter is kinda sloppy and that's the reason why i wanted to swap it out. I am having a difficulty choosing which short shifter to get. I know that ppl say B&M is the best, but it is also the most expensive one. How would you compare B&M with the other two? lemme know what you all think... Ralco or Fidanza are alot more cheaper than b&m..
B&M, Ralco, or Fidanza..

The only reason the B&M is more expensive is because its made of a differnt material and supports more knobs aswell as the stock I have the B&M SS W/ the Greddy Counter weight shift knob and it works great but I got my B&M and the Knob for only 75.00 bucks brand new on craigslist keep looking and a short shifter is a huge waste of money buy a cheap one on ebay and replace the busings with skate board bushings and it will be very smooth!

I have the Fidanza short throw and its crap. It didn't even fit. I had to cut an 1/8 of an inch off of the black piece to make it work. It's a real PITA.

Megan Racing (another B&M knockoff) + Symborski kit + skate bearings. That was a great setup in my 97 GST. I never had any problems with the shifter, and it was only $40.
