Default What short shifter do you have?

I'm looking to purchase a short shifter for my '01 GSR. I'm not too familiar with the aftermarket companies for Acura/ Honda but from what I've gathered, Skunk2 makes a pretty good short shifter. Anyone know of any other good aftermarket companies that you've had good experiences with? Any recommendations? I don't want to spend much over $100 as that seems to be the going price for most of these shifters if not cheaper.. thanks!

I've got a b&m. I don't recommend buying one, it rattles A LOT. I have a skunk2 shifter and poly shifter bushings waiting to be installed.

I have to second that B&M short shifter sucks. It's made for the Civic/CRX/Integra which means you get to either add or take away bushings to make them fit the car you are putting them on...and it doesn't have a bend in it so you have to reach a little farther, which IMO wasn't comfortable. I swapped mine out with a Hurst Short Shifter and really like it.

ive got a b&m and its really nice. Al though i plan on getting a dual-bend from evasivemotorsports.com for a good price. while youre at it, get a shifter bushing kit, youll love it.

EJcivic02 has a good point that I forgot to mention...The aftermarket shifter bushings are a good idea and they are cheap too, your down there anyways so why not swap em out. Mine are made by Energy Suspension.
