Probably because the transmission casing is bolted right below the shifter. In your RSX, it's just a shifter rod with a shaft connected to the transmission. It also explains why it gets warm (directly bolted to transmission) compared to your RSX.

Unless you need to perform some sort of maintenance through the center console I still don't see why the shifter opening needs to be twice the size of the shifters actual range

Makes sense as far as the trans being directly under it. Heat soak from contact friction between clutch and flywheel.

I had a hard time selling my RSX in Fargo. I expanded my craigslist ad to the Twin cities and sold in within two weeks.
