Best short shifter for 6th gen?

[spoogenet]

The main two I see around are DC Sports and Neuspeed. Does anybody know which has the shortest throw and/or is the best overall in quality?

I'd really like a C's short shifter, but they don't make one for the 6th gen, and even stopped making them for the 5th gens. ;(

I'd get a B&M SSA if they make it for the 6th gens. I like mine because it has neutral position adjustment. Its a tossup between the DC and Neuspeed, both are nice, but expensive. B&M is also cheaper.

So you've got the adapter? I'm think B&M makes one for the 6th gen, I think I've seen it but I'm not sure.

Just what do you mean by neutral position adjustment?

Yeah I have a B&M. There are three different holes to screw the bolt that attaches the shift linkage into. This adjusts the position (from front to back) that the stick will sit at when the car's in neutral. Good stuff.

Ok....could you please enlighten me on why one would want this? I've never really thought of wanting to adjust my neutral position front to back.

What I would like, though, is a shorter lever. I'd like the lever to sit down closer to the console rather than sticking up so far. Is there any convenient way to do this? I dunno about on the 5th gen, but on the 6th gen I'm pretty sure the lever is bent, so I can't just chop off the top to make it shorter, I'd have to straighten it out to do that.

I like the stick adjusted toward me one notch... its just personal preference. If you don't care about that, any SSA will work.

The lever on the 5th gen is bent also, but you can still have the bottom part cut and rewelded. I've been trying to get some 4th gen. prelude shift assembly parts from someone to put in my 5th gen accord, but I'm 95% sure that they won't fit in your car.
