Yeah, being that its a Honda, I figured that a short shifter would have been out ASAP.

Finally! Mugen Fit GD3 Short Shifter

I haven't seen anything posted about this yet, so I guess I got the scoop, although the real credit goes to my Japanese friend who's blog I found this in. As displayed at the Tokyo Auto Salon, Mugen has a Fit GD3 short-shift kit set for planned release in 03/07. No real details yet other than a price of 18,900 yen, or about $158 USD, but this looks really good. I tried checking Mugen's site, but no info up yet about it. Also no idea if it'll work on a USDM Fit, but I suspect it will. Maybe King Motorsports or Ben at AJR has more information. Anyway, here's pics. Finally, a short shifter kit for the Fit, and from a great manufacturer!

Id buy it, alot of the JDM products for the interior already Fit. Perhaps this is the case for the shifter also.. $155 is not bad either

It saids the ratio's been modified........

I wonder if they meant the throw has been shortened too. I want a short throw shifter instead a shortened shifter.

If it's only a shortened shifter, then it's not such a nice item to be used with a seat that's so up high. Shortened shifter only make the shifter harder to reach.......

So I really hope that this unit provide shorter throw also!
