I reserve judgement until I actually try it out. But in general with a short shifter you still have to wait on the synchros to do their jobs. Or you can force them and actually shift slower. I think a different shift **** would be enough for most..

Well, I'm holding my breath on the Renesis Racing one. The picture is of a 2nd gen RX-7 shifter and bushings. If they can't even manage to produce a photo of the actual unit they are selling for the RX-8, then how high can your expectations be of their actual product and service?

i had a 92 talon and that had a short shift. but they made the nobb long like a joy stick or something. it was cool though because the arm rest was so high that all the action had to be in the wrist. yous guys rock!
