Robust enough for the track, Refined enough for the street:

Easily the most capable 8th Gen Civic shifter ever developed, the beauty of ACUiTY's Adjustable Performance Shifter for the 8th Gen Civic is due to the careful attention to detail and rigorous testing that went into its nearly 1.5-year design process. The result of this design effort is a shifter that is equally at home in anything from a mildly modded street car to a purpose-built race car. The shifter's unique triple-spherical architecture and divorced spring design lend it a confidence-inspiring shift feel in a form factor that still fits under the factory console. The 1960-3W variant includes adjustments for shift knob height, gear throw, and gate spacing, while the 1960-1W variant has only a shift knob height adjustment. See the "Adjustment Specs" tab for info on each of these two shifters' adjustment ranges. The shifter's frame is built from a careful combination of aluminum and stainless steel to improve rigidity while being mindful of weight. Two PTFE-lined precision spherical bearings ensure smooth shifting with minimal friction and great long-term wear resistance. Centering is quick, decisive, quiet, and consistent, compliments of a thick, over-wound centering spring, cushioned spring legs, and re-engineered spring architecture. The centering force at the knob is 100% more than the stock shifter on the 8th Gen Si and Type R.

Works with all M10x1.5 and OEM Honda/Acura shift knobs.

What to Expect:

Expect a significantly different and more sporty shifting experience, even when compared to our Stage 1 shifting kit and other aftermarket 8th Gen Civic shifters. This is not just another short shifter; it was carefully engineered to provide an incredibly satisfying, precise shifting experience above and beyond anything previously available. At first, it may take some time to adjust to the extreme reductions in throw and gate spacing, as well as the stiffer centering action, but in a short while, you will find the shifter's precision, short throws, narrow gates and snappy centering making every driving experience an opportunity to put a smile on your face. You will likely find that the improved precision will lead to more confidence in quick shifts and more consistent shifting in general. Because the shifter is made from much stiffer materials than the stock shifter, shifts will feel more rigid, defined, and confidence-inspiring during spirited drives. The discerning driver will notice more feedback from the gearbox compliments of this rigid construction; this can be useful in determining the quality of your footwork on the clutch and shift timing. The exact ratio of throw distance to gate spacing is a very personal matter; take advantage of the adjustments to make the H-pattern perfect for you.

Expect a brief break-in period of 2-4 weeks of daily driving, where the shifter's internal friction will reduce and level out. You'll notice during this period that shifts become a bit easier than when the shifter was initially installed. This happens because the freshly installed bearings are burnishing themselves. Once this process is complete, internal friction will level out and provide a consistent shift feel for years to come.

Best sheets
Color: White, Size: Queen
I have bought, like many, at least 2 sheet sets per year, either because of substandard quality or by not meeting "Cooling" promises. I learned along time ago that "You get what you pay for" especially with sheets. All the Ross, Marshalls and Burlington sets that look to be great deals because they have to be,? they're at discounters and sure to be half of what they normally sell for, right?? I took a chance when I noticed these for $139 (Queen, 1 year ago). I had a set of the Maloufs Rayon from Bamboo queen sheets that I adored, $159, but after just a dozen or so washings they literally got holes in them. I trim my toe nails so that I don't punture the sheets, had to learn that the hard way. Malouf said that my top loading wash machine was adding to the issue!!! I don't walk around with any holes in my wardrobe and I wash everything in the same unit. Any way, I took that chance and these are the BEST sheets I have ever purchased, period. I ended up with a hole in one set and Bedsure provided me a hefty discount/refund on my next set. These are very smooth so if you are sensitive to the feel of certain materials, you will be very happy. They don't have that cheap Microfiber Sheen that you get with other sets in this price range. They keep me very cool, and I'm a true hot body. Buy these and I assure you that, for the money, I don't believe there exists anything better... Enjoy

Good quality sheets
Color: White, Size: King
Really lovely sheets! Just the right thickness, not scratchy and fit our deep mattress. Have washed these a few times now and they get softer. No pilling thus far. Great buy!

Wrinkle easy
Color: White, Size: Queen
These are so comfy and cooling I love it. Such a luxurious feel. But they wrinkle so bad. I think it’s the rayon, but that’s what makes it so comfortable. If you’re willing to iron sheets or are ok with the wrinkles these are perfect!

Cool to the touch
Color: Sage Green, Size: King
These sheets are nice but in my opinion they aren’t worth more than $100. Side note, finding goose down inserts are challenging to find in the 20x40 pillow case they provide. So keep that in mind. The goose down pillow size I’m most commonly seeing for a king size bed are usually 18x36. That is more my fault for not double checking. They do feel cool to the touch which I do appreciate.

Excellent quality
Color: White, Size: King
This sheet set is Very soft and Very thick. Excellent quality. Excellent value for the money. I’ll definitely purchase more in other colors. I love the bag that they come in because we live in a small apartment and being able to fold the sheets and place them in the bag for storage is a bonus.
