So what’s the difference between the 17-19 an 2020 shifter assembly? Cause I have this thing I bought from someone on here just laying around debating about install or selling lol

The '20 Type R is little short and closer ratio. I have not tried the '17-'19 and cannot comment. I got a new job last Autumn closer to home and took a pay-cut. So for the price of thr '20 Shifter it was an awesome bargin mod:)

Just ordered mine this morning. Can't wait til it gets here, and thanks for making this a package deal!
@Unity Performance FINALLY got my goodies yesterday... man, it was agonizing waiting for two weeks to arrive from Canada. :mad:;) I know it's not you're fault... shipping was QUICK, but delivery... ugh!

Put the purty bits on last night, and will swap the shifters out this weekend. ? Thanks again for putting this package together, it's just what us MT guys and gals need!

Awesome, glad you got it! There was a Canada Post to USPS cross-border exchange delay, all seems to be good now!

You'll really enjoy it! I go back and forth between my Si with the Acuity Shifter, and CTR with this kit - for half the price it's really a great value :)

What a difference!

The Type R shifter alone would be a great upgrade, but with the Acuity add-ons, it's amazing! I was concerned that it might be a little too stiff and notchy before it went in the car, but it's not. Nice, clean shifts with greatly reduced free play, and the throw and gate spacing are perfect!

The only pain in the ass was getting the damned little gate cable clip back on with my fat fingers. ?

That's the reason I went with the same set up. I wanted a short shifter but without the stiffness and retain oem comfort. I have been driving far every weekend to be with my ailing Mom. Driving far adds some fun with the shifter upgrades while I visit Mom.

Sorry to hear about your mom.
