I have been looking for an after market shifer for my 93 1g and I have come across 3 options so far.

These are:

pacesetter
obx
pilot

Every site that I go to looking for information about these shifters doesn't have any specific for my car. I know that the pacesetter has an adjustable throw and I don't think that the other 2 do. The pilot looks like a decent shifter, but I am unable to find any type of review on it except for ArcticTsi's website and post about it. I think that the pilot may have the "stops" on it to prevent overshifting but I'm not sure because I can't find a website with an actual picture of the shifter. The pacesetter shifter seems like a nice one except for that it is missing the stops and I have heard that it can damage your transmission.

I want a decent shifter that cuts down the throw by at least 30% but I would rather have a 50% throw reduction. Has anybody used a kit like the symborski with any of these shifters?

I think the pilot shifter would be my best choice right now. Is anyone using one?

Thanks
 
Both of those are just modified stock shifters, the rx4 speed one is just a shorter throw on top, I want the longer bottom part so that it is a real sts.
 
I don't think there is one. I've read reviews on the Pacesetter and majority said it's a piece of junk.

Unless you can convince B&M to make a 1G shifter like they have with the 2Gs, I think we're SOL.
