Glad it made you laugh mate 😂. Cheers mate will do!

Yes, you finally did it. Feels good, dunnit? I am now using a knob like yours, feels much better. The original one is resting on a shelf. I got mine like what 1 and a half year ago. I was able to get my hands on one for like 15£ back then, e-bay was helping out. Anyway, the RHD looks clean. Stay safe! I digged my knuckles in the lower metal trim right after getting the blue bearing cap off.

nice little how to guide, i've ordered mine and will definitely be using your video as reference. Thanks for taking the time.

My FN2 has a lot of play in the shifter sorta forward and back do you think this would help it at all? Or do I need to replace bushings

It will shorten the throw from front to back but won't fix any wear that's already there.

Hi lew have you looked into doing detent spring upgrade? I wounder if itl make difference to ours cars fn2? Also hybrid racing shifter bushes for better feel?

@FNLEW

I think both of those things would definitely help but unfortunately it won't stop the fact that some gearboxes like mine just need some internal parts replaced.

I was putting off fitting a short shifter for ages. Is it worth taking out the driver seat for more access?

@FNLEW

To be honest the amount of effort of taking the seat out really doesn't gain you any extra access.

Any ideas what size diameter the ball is on the end of the lever - I need one of these with a 10mm ball ?

Alright Lew, i've had my fn2 a while now and I think, like you. I have the 3rd gear issue, its not that often but can be annoying. Would you say this short shift provided any benefit towards the 3rd gear problem?

Did you find the gears were a stiffer/ more effort needed to get into 2, 3 & especially 6 ? Maybe not as you have a weighted shifer

I must admit, and I know I'm replying to a year old comment, but I fitted my short shifter yesterday, a weekend after having a new clutch fitted and new gear oil, and after much removing of plastic, I've found 2,4,y and R seem to just POP in easily, but 1,3 and 5 feel a tad stiffer, almost like its not quite in. Definitely think it's just how the short shifter makes things though.

I have a Honda prelude 3rd generation atm (project car) but due to it being so hard to find parts or waitting weeks for parts from the U.S it's becoming impossible to daily and I don't want to run it into the ground, so I was thinking of upgrading to the FN2 for the new daily and overall my main car while taking the prelude off the road completely so making it easier for me to work on.
