Default short shifter

hi people

ive recently put a short shifter in my civic vti and was wondering will it mess up the clutch or gearbox? ive had the clutch replaced a week ago as i messed it up, a piece of the clutch plate broke, do you think that this was because of the short shifter or not?

Do you think that a short shifter can mess up the car? im not sure whether to take it out and put the standard one back in, please could you help as i am stuck

this is my first day on this site and i think that it is very handy with everyone helping eachother out with your advices, nice one guys

thank you for your advice

I wouldn't think that it would be the shifter, since it simply shortens the engagement between gears.
