S2 Dual Bend Good??

[stealthy]

i know several people have the skunk2 dual bend, did you see a big difference over stock? isnt the stock gsr shifter sort of a dual bend anyways, atleast compared to say a stock civic shifter and whatnot?

i like it, i'd say maybe 30% less throw? thats what it feels like to me. feels smooth and stiff. according to sk2 website the dual bend is supposed to be used with the sk2 knob and with all that weight it should make your shifting smoother. it looks almost the same as a stock integra shifter except the bottom ball joint is set lower... so it gives you a shorter throw when you try to change gears. and it also has a nice gold/bronze finish to it which is nice

i've got the s2 combo w/ ES poly bushings, and it feels really good. each shift feels shorter and more positive. kinda like you know it's in gear by the feel. only problem i found with the DA is that when you push it to the right it hits the exhaust pipe, lol.

I actually have the Buddy Club short shifter. I had the S2 on there for around a yr and a half. I prefer the Buddy Club to the S2. The S2 has a shorter shift, but the Buddy Club shifter height is a lil shorter and it feels a good bit sturdier. I have it combined with the Buddy Club Type A (the white ball) shift knob. Just thought I'd voice a awesome second option. O yeah, and you can get the Buddy Club shifter and shift knob combined for the price of jsut the S2 shifter. Just another thing to think about.
