My car is booked in with the directors @ B&M here in the UK to have a short shift kit made using my car as the guinea pig

I'll ask him if they will do a group buy direct form the factory.

I think its quite straight forward, the guy said he would need my car for approx 2 days, first to see if any of the other parts in the B&M Honda range would fit the S, then they would need to test it out.

I wasn't aware that B&M and Eibach are the same company but his business card had both logos on in.

Regrading time frames, it was supposed to be done last year but due to other things being developed we haven't been able to arrange a date other than him saying recently that he wants to do it in early spring this year!

Considering the grinding problems the S2000 has, why would anyone want a short throw shifter? For the few owners that DON'T experience any grinding, I think a short shifter would probably cause it.
