does the after market short shifter improve a lot?

[Newbienissan]

for my experience, i've never tried to compare normal or short shifter, coz day 1 i changed to manual i oredy changed to shorter shifter. imho, shorter shifter gives u better feel, confident to change gear, coz when u drive hard into corner u need to focus on steering wheel n pedals. and stock shift is too tall, too much movement, u felt everything is out of place. it is somewhat like having bucket seat too, giving more confident to drive hard, really hard. coz u felt everything is in place.

well said. i will say a short shifter is worth the investment. only RM150 and u can DIY. might need to go out and buy bush for it if u notice ur original one is a bit worn. if ur original shifter is a bit loose feel then chances are its time to change too. no idea if its standard or not but its best to take out and see first before running off to buy a new one.

another worthy investment i would say is steel braided brake hoses. u will know once u install it in

if to say improvement 0-100kmh, i think maybe super mili-seconds improvement or none, haha. the main point is to let the driver feel more control over the car thats all. Just like bucket seat they dont give any horsepower to the car, BUT if the driver can drive in full confident, his cornering speed will be faster.

 

[ACQ2305]

hahaha,..true..feels like the car is more 'sportier', macho?? hahahaa..the 1 second shave , well,m just playing, joking around....think most of us here can change gears under 1 second.... la la la...:hmmmm:

i will have to say bucket / sport seats do help in cornering and overall driver control of car. i seen many ppl driving almost lying down and they can't barely reach the steering wheel. bucket/sport seats will limit body movement during corners (u know ur (_|_) feels like moving in the opposite direction of ur turn). firm body will ensure firm control over steering wheel.

steel braided hoses are brake hose located near the brake calipers but it might be covered by the tyre. take out ur tyre and u can see it connecting to ur brake caliper. normal brands around are ProRS and Goodridge i think. either one will do.

i think short shifter does not reduce the shifting time to be heavily noticed. what it does is as newbienissan said, it gives driver confidence and control over the car better. there's a feel good factor there too. it does reduce the throw of shifting and to most ppl that's a positive thing oredi. i would recommend it for iswara owners as iswara shifter throw is super far apart. wira shifters are quite comfortably close so there's no need to change it unless u have the extra cash and got nothing else to mod. lolz

 

[ACQ2305]

u using short shifter too ?

yeappp....now shifting feels tight and short...feels much better..but have to get use to shifting it fast...

 

[contreasjun27]

short shifter advantage is to make you shift faster and shorter stroke and prevent gear slip hehe coz once you get used to shifting in short shifter you will tend to shift the gear more faster and accurate

 

[mydvdrom]

yes yes. it takes time to get used to it to be able to shift fast. so for newly changed shortshifter guys/gals, don't expect swift shifting immediately. chances are u will change into wrong gear or get stuck. heheh

i learn frm u ma exp frm bike la bro

[kumar22mostwanted]

can anyone recommend me where to get a good short shifter for putra evo 3 :rolleyes:
last time i drive car with short shift feel dam effin good

 

[mydvdrom]

juz check out some of the shops around sunway area if u r in klang valley. lotsa them carry these. for normal wira/iswara should be around 150-180 depending on shop but for evo3 not sure. might be same if u didn't change the shifter to evo3 too (not sure if u can bolt on evo3 gearbox to wira/putra original shifter or not). juz ask around. i know for sure N1 and Kakimotor carries them.

[DanzEterna]

yes, it does improve gear shifting.

 

[pupjoint]

Jasma Saga Iswara IMPROVED Short Shifter Ver2 - Car Accessories & Parts for sale Selangor - Mudah.my

anyone can tell if these are real or fakes? do they make fake stuff like these? Jasma?

 

[DanzEterna]

there are no real or fakes, its just aftermarket parts.

 

[pupjoint]

aftermarket also can be separated into branded, original, made locally but rebranded etc. otherwise, everyone can also claim theirs are aftermarket.

not really...


it depends....

its the original brands

or fake (imitation)


it doesn't matter overseas's made or locally made (local means factory was in malaysia lorrrr)

imagine if greddy have opened their factory here...thus the product was locally made...does it shows lack of quality?? or can be called fake?


and regarding about jasma's item....so far nobody cares to imitate/fake them simply because they already a cheap item with cheap quality to match....
