Are short shifters okay for ur car?

why not? they dont hurt it... if anything they make it better... more actuate shifting and faster too so less time on the clutch

how?i know i shift faster and more acuate...
they just shorten your throw
i can not see how it is bad.... if it is designed properly then it should be ok... if it was not then i can see how not getting in the gears properly is bad...

It will shorten the actuall Shift, not the shifter.
