'Build' one?

I hope your a fitter and turner, because for the price and machining, you could buy an off the shelf one from Redline!

Goodluck...

Beware the synchro's!

I probably don't know what I'm talking about but I thought that a short shifter was just a shorter shifter and a quick shifter had less throw?

Nah... short shifter has a higher pivot point... basically extends the bottom part and shortens the top part so u have less leverage but the distance moved is decreased... not the easiest thing to make though....

Here's a couple site I found that you could try. They both have the same content, but one is set out in a DIY and one if the original forum post with extra info and feedback.

weld the sucker in on an angle though unless u got long arms, feels great to use and everyone who has driven my car agrees.

The pic shows it in neutral by the way
