@chileno: According to every reference I've ever seen on the subject, the Spanish language has five pure vowels.
The short i sound in American English is not one of them.
I'm not saying that the short i sound cannot be learned by a native speaker of Spanish. I'm only stating that it doesn't naturally occur in the Spanish language.
Any deviation from the five vowel sounds that Spanish embraces is simply that - a deviation.
The original poster was asking if there's a way to make the short i sound in Spanish. The answer is no.
