Skunk2 wanted to do a sale for you guys on their overstock of short shifters for the GD3. For $15 why not?

No code, no group buy necessary. Simply go to:

628-05-0200 - Short Shifters - Accessories - Skunk2 Store

and order

 

Thanks for the heads up. I will get one for my GD1

 

very nice deal!

 

I have/have tried every other short shifter offering... might as well see if this does anything : /

 

you can always add this to your existing short shifter, make it a super short shifter! lol

 

I'll add this to my Mugen shift box, H-Fit hard mounts and solid derlin under hood shift bushings.... I still doubt that will eliminate my issue though I have so much side to side slop in gear, other drivers think it is still in neutral and stall it.

 

i'd be keen but they only post expedited and that adds $90 to the cost FML

 

Thanks for the heads up. Ordered.

I ordered an extra. I would be able to post it for you when I get it. $20 (my cost with tax, and some gas to the post office) + $37 USPS priority mail to you. I won't be able to send out until Saturday as it is my only day off.



I just installed the SS adapter today. Like everyone says the white cap at the end of the stock shifter is a bitch to get off. After trying different methods outlined in the Skunk2 SS thread, I found the easiest way to remove it was to get a small vice grip to pry and use as leverage. Most difficult thing about the install was trying to tighten the three allen screws. It is at such a bad angle. I haven't taken the car for a spin yet, but just going through the gears it's a slight improvement.

 

These are still available from Skunk2.. for $15 why not indeed.

I ordered a set.. even if the shipping up to Vancouver (~$20.) costs more than the parts.

 

I actually managed to add this to my setup... Had to notch the tunnel for the shifter to clear though

Made a VERY noticeable difference! Quite happy with the $20 spent!!!

 

Wanted to check this fits the uk gd jazz sport model?

I emailed skunk2 before I found this thread and they said it wouldn't fit, so want to double check.

Thanks.

 

I installed this on my GD1 2007 Fit (Brazil) and it fits. I also had the Mugen shifter on my 2007 GD3. As far as I know, both OEM shifters have the same dimension (but the materials are slight different).

The strutking metal washer (designed for GD3) also fits too. I am using that with the skunk2 adapter. It works fine without any problems.

I would suggest to take the cotter pin out and completely detach the shifter (from the cable) during installation. It is much easier to install the adapter that way. I simply don't know how people can "slap" the adapter in place and tighten the 3 allen screws without taking the shifter out

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks martymcfly, just ordered a set.

btw they have a new eu site.

If you add LAUNCH10 at checkout you will get %10 off your order til the 17th, according to the FB page.

Hope this helps someone.

 

Yep this was the best $20 I spent. I still am getting used to the new throw but the feel is so much better and removed tons of slop.

 

Spend another $30? on strutking metal bushing. You will feel like the shifter is wielded to the chassis

 

as soon as i get my alternator working i will hop on this like a lion!

 

Anyone know if these fit the GE as well?

 

I installed this last night on my GD3.

Hardest part was that damn bushing on the pivot ball. Used a 17mm socket to get leverage and pop it off. Took me about 20 minutes to do it.

 

just ordered a set for myself: $25.14 shipped to my door. can't wait to install it

 

Is this deal still available ?
