Quick answer needed?

When I had a short shifter mine would stick down occasionally and I'd have to pull it back up. It would drive fine with the shifter in the down position though 1, 2, 3, 4... and then when you'd try to go to 5th gear it'd go all the way over to the right, toward reverse. Try to shift to 5th gear, if it won't go in then the shifter is just stuck in the down position. Complain about it, get them to knock a couple grand off b/c you'll "have to get a new tranny." Then get in the car, pull the shifter up and enjoy you're new S2000 w/ a perfect tranny.

^ Agreed. Use it as a negotiating tool.
The shift lever/spring probably just needs adjustment, grease. I had the same problem when I installed my short shifter; it would stick in the down position.

AP1 - Rev to 9k. It unlocks the tranny for the reverse gear. Dump the clutch.
Just playin, lol push down on the knob in neutral (feels almost like a spring), then push all the way right and down. Your shifter should look like it's on an exaggerated angle.
