Default Short shift kits- will any make the A4 shifter feel like a S2000 or RSXs?

I have driven both of these cars and loved the feel of the shifter, which is lacking on my A4 (sloppy, long throw). Will any kits give the same tight feel that Honda/Acura have?

S2000 shifter is horrible. Not a good benchmark

Default I don't know about those two cars but it WILL transform the driving into something more tolerable...

Going back, this would prolly be my first mod.

The pre-facelift cars with the 2.0 were better. The new shifter feels horrible.

Default Mine feels great now

from a fork in applesauce to short, direct, precise throws. It's the first thing I did and my favorite mod.
