Default Short Shifter for Pre-95s

I had read posts that made it seem like 95+ was the only way to get a short shifter(mkiv supra) and such, but after buying the wrong TRD quick shifter, i had another attempt.

i bought a C's Short Shifter for the jzz30 after seeing a pic, and it had a ball on the end.
I installed it today, in my 93 or 94 R154 tranny, and it worked...it is REAL close to hitting the interior plastic, but worked...feels real different, not sure if i want it or not just yet. . .

but i just wanted to make sure pre-95 people knew this short shifter existed...only bad thing is i can't find it for anything cheap...it's like $350+

i'll try to remember to snap some pics of the short shifter.

only thing is that i bought it on ebay...and haven't seen another one listed for the soarer since, but i MAY still have the box...and i remember it being for several cars, and i coulda swore the A70 was on there. . .which mtr sells theirs...

they don't use the same bottom?
because i originally bought a TRD for a supra, and the bottom was completely different.
i figured the r154 and w58 both changed the style at the same time??

just a guess. . .
