Buddy Club or Revo Technica (both made by the same manufacturer). Not sure how it compares to the Rogue or Nismo, but it works much better than the B&M as it feels just like the stock shifter, and it trims off the height and throw unlike the Rogue.

How will the **** handle the summer heat though?
It gets scalding hot if you've been parked in the sun.

Thanks. People on here are saying that the Rogue also shortens the throw and height too

Pffft! Those cars had long shifts compared to my EP3 Civic. After I installed a short shifter in that thing, it felt just like you were playing Daytona USA with much shorter shifts! But no shifter in any car I've driven compares to the one in a Porsche GT3...

The Rogue reduces the shift by 20%, the Nismo is adjustable to something like 40%, the Buddy Club/ Revo Technica by 40%.

Most good shift ***** that are metal (be it brass, titanium, whatever) will come with some sort of boot. If my wife hadn't tossed mine (my bad, it was winter so it was taking up space on the counter) even the relatively cheap ARC replica I got from Tony (formerly OC Infiniti Tony) came with one.

unfortunately the TK **** does not come with a boot; you must purchase it separately. Kinda ridiculous for a $200 ****...oh well, I still bought one anyway lol..

They're exactly the same. I usually get the Revo simply because it's slightly cheaper for the same product.

How does the Revo compare to Rogue?
