Designed to reduce the centering force on 1981 shifters for a gentler centering action
15% less centering preload than the spring supplied with 1981-LHD and 1981-RHD shifters
Zinc-plated for corrosion resistance
Rubber spring sleeves reduce unwanted noise during shifts
Description
If you€™re looking for yet another way to personalize your 1981-LHD or 1981-RHD shifters for the 11th Gen Civic and 5th Gen Integra, our spring upgrades are a great way to do it. This spring has approximately 15% less centering preload than the spring our 1981 shifters are equipped with from the factory. If you find the centering force on your 1981 shifter to be a little stiffer than you€™d like, this spring upgrade may be a good option for you. Like the spring it replaces, this version is zinc coated for corrosion resistance and features padded spring sleeves for quiet, reliable operation.
If you€™re instead looking for a spring that provides a higher preload and snappier centering than what the shifter came equipped with, consider instead opting for SKU 1981-S03 which has a 15% higher preload than the spring equipped to 1981 shifters.
What to Expect
Expect a modest but noticeable decrease in centering force, around 15% less than the spring your 1981 shifter came equipped with. Your shifter will still center effectively on its own, but you€™ll have to exert less force to reach the far left or right gears like 1,2, 5, 6, and R.
