I used my old KA shifter.

It was a aftermarket: Just like this one

I had to put longer bolts in the bracket but other than that perfect fit.

I don't know. The shifter I received with my RB swap didn't fit the Rb transmission, So I just used my short throw I had in the old KA. Maybe someone knows.

I've got a spare stock one, but I'll have to ship it from Japan if you want it. Email me if you do.
