      Does the short shifter make that much of a difference?

            Every Festiva I've owned get the shifter mod. Started with a civic shifter but have been making my own since.

                I can for sure. As soon as I get the cores Tom is sending me I will get a couple made.

                      Eventually added to every one of my Festivas for ergonomics/cosmetics/function in no particular order:

                          Yep! Wiper down mod is one I forgot. Power steering is a nice one but kinda hard to find. When I do I almost ALWAYS snatch it up. Though I usually do the Rio front swap and that has ball bearing tophats. Not so much that it is easier but a whole lot smoother. Wish I had a lathe so I could turn down Festiva struts to fit the Rio hats.
