Collection: Short Throw Shifters

A short throw shifter is a modification or aftermarket component that alters the shift lever's geometry & reduces the distance required to change gears in a manual transmission-equipped car. It is designed to provide quicker & more precise gear shifts, enhancing the overall driving experience. The standard shift throws in some cars can be relatively long, requiring more movement of the shift lever to engage each gear. Short throw shifters address this by shortening the distance between gear positions, resulting in shorter & crisper shifts. They achieve this by utilizing different shift lever geometries, such as modified linkage or a different pivot point. Short throw shifters offer several benefits, including improved shift feel, reduced shift effort, & faster gear engagement. They can provide a more engaging driving experience, particularly for those who enjoy spirited driving or track use. It's important to note that not all cars are compatible with short throw shifters, & their installation may require expertise or professional assistance. Additionally, some short throw shifter kits may include other components, such as reinforced bushings or upgraded shift knobs, to further enhance the overall shifting experience. Short throw shifters are a popular modification for car enthusiasts seeking more precise & efficient gear changes, allowing for a more connected & satisfying driving experience.
