I was just wondering if cutting the stock shifter is a good idea. I think I remember that some people have done this, what were the results? If so, is it just cutting it with a hacksaw and re-threadding it, or is there more to it? Thanks for any advice!

 

anyone?

 

i cut mine with a air gun grinder...i did not rethread i put a aftermarket one on with the allen key... its not the same as a short shifter but looks and feels better than the stock..

 

same here it does feel better but im going to get a sts pretty soon because its still a long throw

 

Cutting a couple inches out of the middle and welding it back up will eleminate hassles with threading it again. I've done this for several 300zx's.

 

just buy a short throw i got an adjustable one for 60 bucks
