Skunk2 Dual Bend Short Throw Shifter - 1994-2001 Acura Integra
Tired of rowing through long gear throws on your Integra? The Skunk2 dual bend short throw shifter cuts your shift throw by 30%, which means shorter, faster shifts. It's made from alloy steel instead of aluminum, so it's heavier and more durable. The extra weight makes shifts feel more mechanical and deliberate. The shifter uses sealed bearings and a low-friction coating, so shifts are smooth and there's no binding. If you're tired of the factory shifter's long throws and sloppy feel, this is what you need.
30% Shorter Shift Throw
The Skunk2 shifter reduces your shift throw by 30% compared to the factory shifter. That means you're moving the shifter less distance to engage each gear. Shorter throws mean faster shifts, which matters when you're racing or driving hard. You spend less time between gears and you're back on the throttle quicker. The shorter throw also makes the shifter feel more direct because you're not reaching as far to grab the next gear.
Alloy Steel Construction, Not Aluminum
Skunk2 makes this shifter from alloy steel instead of aluminum. Steel's heavier than aluminum, which some people don't like, but the extra weight makes shifts feel better. The heavier shifter has more momentum when you move it, so it falls into gear more positively. Steel's also way stronger than aluminum. Aluminum shifters can bend or break if you miss a shift or force it into gear. Steel doesn't. If you're rowing gears hard, steel's what you want.
Sealed Bearings and Low-Friction Coating
The shifter uses sealed bearings at the pivot points, which means the bearings don't get contaminated with dirt or grease. Sealed bearings last longer and they stay smooth. The shifter's also got a low-friction coating that reduces resistance when you're moving the shifter. The combination of sealed bearings and low-friction coating means shifts are smooth with no binding or catching.
Dual Bend Design
The dual bend design lowers the shift knob position and moves it closer to the driver. That makes it easier to reach the shifter without leaning forward, which is more comfortable during long drives or track sessions. The bend also changes the shift angle slightly, which some people prefer.

Note: Shift knob not included. You'll need to reuse your factory shift knob or buy an aftermarket one separately. The Skunk2 shifter uses standard M10x1.5 threads, which is what most aftermarket Honda/Acura shift knobs use. Short throw shifters make shifts faster but they also make the shifter feel more notchy and mechanical. That's normal. If you want a smooth, factory-like feel, stick with the factory shifter. If you want faster shifts and don't mind a more mechanical feel, get the short throw shifter.
