I'm thinking you need a manual transmission in order to get a short shifter but I want to make sure on that 100% so I won't buy one for my car since I have an automatic
If you want really fast shifts, disconnect the dropping resistor. It is mounted on the fender next to the battery, It is a ceramic 'PEZ container' looking gizmo with the connector on the bottom. It runs hot when the car is running, so remove the connector carefully. It will cause a check engine light when removed which will go out when reconnected after a few times driving the car.Pharrari said:I guess automatics arent fit for acceleration as in shifting real quick.....\
I wish I had a manual
I think ChimMike would say hell no to me doing this since I am a "newb" at this. I can't even figure out how do u rev up if u have a automatic say if u was gonna race someone @ at the light.lshadoff said:If you want really fast shifts, disconnect the dropping resistor.

This will cause full hydraulic pressure on all shifts, and they will be instantaneous. They are so harsh, that it is too uncomfortable for the street. It works wonders at the drag strip, though.

Well, Mike doesn't know anything about automatics. He's afraid of them.Pharrari said:I think ChimMike would say hell no to me doing this since I am a "newb" at this. I can't even figure out how do u rev up if u have a automatic say if u was gonna race someone @ at the light.
hey now, I didn't say anything at all....the kid is just plugging my name in for no reason Lew.lshadoff said:Well, Mike doesn't know anything about automatics. He's afraid of them.
chimmike said:Chops. he wanted to know how to rev at someone in a hypothetical race. you don't floor the gas to rev at them. remember, reading is fundamental.

chimmike said:Chops, and I quote, this is what he said.
So, like I said, reading is fundamental. What are you doing posting in here anyways? What constructive info do you have to add?
ANDI've got to hold myself back on this one.
dude, how do you think an automatic could use a short shifter, like, how do you think it could benefit from one?
you put it in neutral. ROFL.
chimmike said:Stop postwhoring. Plain and simple. What, again, useful information have you posted here?
your first quote of me, I was asking him a question. See the ? that's called a question mark, it denotes a QUESTION.
