Yes they do.

I'd buy the Neuspeed Short shifter.

Best £90 i've ever spent, made a substansial difference to my car, and everyone whos drive it has noticed it.

Best £90 i've spent as ive said  :lol:

I got mine from CPL Racing on the CTRO forum. I'll take a look as i think i saw one for £60 the other day!

It took 5-10 minutes to fit. Pop ball joint off, slide short shifter over original gear sleeve, screw 3 bolts to fasten (allen key provided), pop ball joint back on and done.

The gear changes feel much more direct, and its about halfened my throws! I've driven along in 4th and thought it looked in neutral before  :roll:  :oops:  :lol:

If you ever meet up, give me a shout and you can try it Smiley

that looks cool bit pricey.

are you sure it will fit? cos its a full shifter replacement anf the si has a k20 and the gearbox is on the other side, i just wondered if the linkage was different?

nice find though Cheesy

I am not 100% becouse I haven't tried. Some UK company didn't give me an answer plus they wan double the money for it.

the guys in US say it fit civic SI (EP3 USDM) with 5speed manual, but this thing is made for type R (EP3 USDM) witch has 6 speed manual trani. But as I said I haven't tried!

Linkage is made with wires not rods, so the linkage is not a problem.
