the shifts on the Fit are not that bad at all.....im comparing to my 2000 civic dx....the fit feels great and the location and height aint bad.
but yeah like james said just the Mugen one.....which im like 90% sure itll fit the US Spec since the drivetrain is identical.

I got an email from Skunk2. They're looking for a car right now. You need to leave your car there for a day I think. I'm sending in my application right now.

Not a word. Ben at AJR said he'd keep me informed if anything develops, and I haven't seen anything on King Motorsports' or even Mugen's site yet either. Just gotta wait it out it seems . . .

Im definitely interested in a short shifter. Im too used to my lower shift throws in my 95 prelude w/ short shift adapter. Is anyone else other than Mugen working on a short shifter?

Short Shift Kit Available Yet???
Anyone know if there is a short shifter kit available for our Fits yet? I'd really like to get my hands on one to tighten things up in the cockpit.
I'm actually quite surprised that DC or Skunk have not come up with anything yet on this...

Anyone notice that the shifter is available for purchase on King Motorsports?
King Motorsports Unlimited, Inc.
I think I'm ordering one as soon as I get my wheels installed, and I'm pairing it with a Skunk2 shift knob.

Apparently at least one person did.
They just kinda sneaked that in there it seems. This is good news, maybe I'll pick it up in a week or two.
