This modification replaces the factory linkage between the gear selector and the transmission on Honda and Acura vehicles equipped with a B-series engine. It alters the geometry of the shift mechanism, resulting in a reduced throw distance between gears. A common example is found on performance-oriented vehicles seeking quicker gear changes.
The core appeal lies in enhancing the driving experience through faster and more precise gear shifts. This is particularly beneficial in motorsports applications where minimizing time between gears is paramount. Its history is rooted in the aftermarket performance industry, addressing the need for improved shift feel and speed beyond the original equipment manufacturer specifications.
