So looking at some websites for some parts and I come across short shifters for the 240sx.

WHAT THE FOOK? $240 for a damn short shifter? On the same websites with the short shifters, the down pipes are like $180, and lightweight pulleysfor $200. And a stage 3 clutch for $265. That better be the best damn short shifter money can buy. What the hell? I'm going to try to figure out how to make a MUCH cheaper short shifter...... this is just stupid and crazy. Damn. I'm pissed.

but this is for Altima's I own a 91 hatch. But I'm guessing the stuff is interchangeable with the Altimas right?

No, you need to CONTACT them and SEE if they have a short shifter for your car.

Umm... the B&M I will soon be ordering from Summit Racing is 140$ + shipping, 240SX ones shouldn't be much different price wise... though I wish I could find a place that sells the Momo shift knob I'm getting too, rather than having to order from two sites...

AHHH! You my friend kick ***! I just found a B&M short shift for the 240sx and it's $140! I'll order one tomorrow :)

Anyway, it says"Nissan: 1993-97 Altima, 1995-98 200SX, 1991-2001 Sentra, 1991-99 Sunny, 1995-2001 Maxima, 1991-94 Pulsar, short throw shifter"

So this badboy will work on all those models? Is this the new updated version? (anyone know the part # of the new one?)Wow I can't believe the price, thats over $100 less than enjukuracing.com. And to think I almost settled for an OBX.. there seriously has to be a catch. Anyone have problems with summitracing.com?

I think B&M and C's are the same thing, its just that B&M is the american name for C's or something. Thats what I heard.

Still $140? The TRD one for the MR2 is barely $100 and if you buy the John-O with the RSE lowering plate, it's the same affect as the TRD only it's $40 shipped.
