K-TUNED RSX RACE SPEC BILLET SHIFTER | YOUASKEDME VOL 1

Applications: 2002-2006 RSX, 2001-2005 Civic EM2/ES, K-swapped EF, EG, EK, DC2
It is no secret that K-Tuned is in close contact with the drivers of some of the fastest import race cars in the world. So when Spoon Sports of Japan asked us for a Billet RSX Shifter to use in an endurance road race car they were working on, we graciously accepted their request. In conjunction with Spoon Sports, feedback from several other racers influenced and accelerated the design of our Race-Spec Billet RSX Shifter that was already on the design table. At a quick glance, the shifter closely resembles the original design with a few changes made to the shift lever and elbow to support the high demands of race cars. The Race-Spec Shifter uses a simpler fixed elbow position, which is only height adjustable and ideal for circuit racers who really like to use the tallest setting. For drag racers, this design is perfect for heavy shifting in cars with dog box transmissions and straight cut gears. Unlike a stock transmission, most of us know that you can't shift a dog box setup with light hands.
The K-Tuned Pro Billet RSX Shifter is a direct replacement for the OEM 2002-2006 RSX-S shifter box and was been designed to work with both factory and aftermarket shifter cables. The full billet design is extremely strong and eliminates all the flex and looseness that are felt with the stock plastic box. The shift lever and pivot ball are made from solid stainless steel and are seated in a spring loaded brass socket. This combination of stainless and brass allows the two materials to lap together while the springs push up and eliminate ñplayî at the ball. For mounting, there are two different sets of holes on the base, so it can be easily bolted into several stock and K-swap applications. The Race-Spec Billet RSX Shifter was designed for professional hard-core racers and we are pleased to offer them a shifter that is truly "Race Proven".

NRG doesn't have these little extra additions with their quick release and hub systems.

I got it for how rare it is and for the appreciation of old school technology. Using the navigation in the US is pointless, it's not an up to date map, won't be in english, and very difficult to set up because you need all the pieces that didn't come with the American version of the civic.

It's different when it comes to a factory shifter or even the regular ktuned billet shifter. I have the race spec version, there is no way it will fit under the stock shift boot. Only the regular no cut shifters and the standard ktuned rsx shifter will still under the oem shift boot and covers.

@ksisjdm

You can put it in any car if you can make it fit. There's been many random cars with one fitted to it, but no it's not designed to directly bolt into several cars. The rsx shifters are obviously designed specifically for the rsx and they just so happen to go into a few other chassis pretty easily. The no cut shifters are designed for just a few k swap chassis. Anything outside of that is a custom installation.

cobratoxic I fully understand you, but still, I simply won't add parts that weren't specifically meant for my car. There's no type R coupe, and my car is a 96-98 which means there was never an Si version with the rear lip for my coupe. There is one oem optional lip, but I'm not concerned with some particular look besides completing the aero additions I want on the car which include a spoon diffuser to go with the spoon front lip and a full sized splitter. Adding aero parts at the moment is not a concern of mine. I'd rather focus on finishing the engine setup the way I want it.
