Is short throw shifter a meme if used with commuter appliance econoboxes only? It seems so fucking satisfying but it's expensive as well.

Because I wanna do this with my '97 Honda Accord, I mean as long as it has a shift boot it's viable now?

Do it if you have the money, who cares what others think? It's your car.

I mean, if you wanna why not, on my 95 accord I put an extension on it and made the throw like 10 inches and I love it, do what you wanna do.

Wrong concept, a short throw isn't just a shorter rod. It's extends the length of the fulcrum to shorten the distance between gears.

In actuality a short throw isn't any shorter in overall length than a stock shifter, remove an inch from the top then add it back to the fulcrum.

They're really nice and add a great feel to your shifter. Most hondas already have good shifters from the factory though

Short shifterd are pointless since you still have to wait for the revs to drop no matter how quickly you slot into the next gear.

This is how syncros get destroyed. And flywheels.

and a lot of the time they are longer than a stock shifter on WRC and older race cars to put the lever closer to the wheel, meaning less time between the wheel and lever.

Its hard to find a picture of a shift lever on a modern race car though for a standard trans. Whats pictured here is is one for i assume a pneumatic assisted sequential.
