They have 3 different kinds of B&M short throw shifters for different prices.Does any one know the differences in between them?And I thought the KA short throw shifters work on SR20DET.

I need one but I don't know which one to buy. Help me out.

thanks,

on 240sx forums you can order one for 200 shipped from some compnay, and just maybe you can still get the deal from enjuku racing for 189 shipped, thats where i got mine and its the revised version too, i love it, and it was only 189, suckers ;0

Pretty sure it works as well but **** that thing is expensive! Cheaper than an actual seq. transmission though.

yes that is the part number i gave you but it isnt the picture of that part. if you wanna see what it looks like go to http://www.bmracing.com and do a part number search for that it should take you to a page that shows you a picture.

like someone else said try http://www.phase2motortrend.com these guys will set you up nicely. thats where i got my sr koyo and flexalite fans from. theyre real easy to work with plus they're one of the sponsers. business for them means forum for you........

NISMO shifters are just a direct OEM replacement

so i'm a little late to the party, but to make sure i got the punch line correct: the part #45088 listed for the 240 w/sr20 will fit on the ka. right?

i put mine in a bit ago, man is it tight, it moves maybe an inch from neutral in each direction, at teh top, and thats very little movement, plus no play on teh shifter at all above the neccessery tolerances, graet little add on, especially for $190

i think mine is the upgraded one. tight tollerences cause the rattle. seems like a fair trade to me. oh well race cars are noisy too. you get used to it

My laughter, cause Im beating another car, drowns out the vibration.
