next time you are driving around in your car put it in gear and punch it with your hand on the shifter and notice that because it is atached the transmission the whole thing rocks with the torque. That is why gated shifters are used on mid-engined, cable and rod shifted cars, and can be retro fitted into FWD cars like the civic but no one really does it for rear wheel drive as you would bend or brake something if you drove it.
