I have the JDM STI shifter with TRD shift knob (which also shortens another few mm, I think 2mm). I felt it could be shorter so I added the TRD USA short shifter bracket. Shifting requires a noticeable bit more effort but feels perfect now.
I haven't had issues with the TRD USA short shifter and made queries on this forum on why people have problems. Seems like the vocal few who have had problems either mis-installed (instructions are not that clear) or got a defective part (may have been revised). Seems like most owners who correctly install this part (I would say an overwhelming majority because TRD hasn't pulled this part off the shelves) have had no problems but they don't post so the problem gets blown up when only people with problems post on the forum.

Thanks, mind measuring what the STI plus USA TRD gives you for throw length for comparison?
