Short throw shifter. In this video I show you how a short shifter works and how to install one in your car. I also compare the difference between a stock shifter and an aftermarket short throw shifter so you can see the drastic improvement in the DriftStang!

    I hope you see this. I was wondering with my car when i shift it leaves and enters new gears realy easily i dont have to apply force. In the video it looks like you have to force it in gear. Is there Maybe something wrong with my shifter or is it just a difrence between cars. I drive a Daihatsu trevis

    I have an MGW tr3650 (race model with the shortest throw) on my 03 GT. I highly recommend it over the Steeda model. Pricey…(I think it's down to $250 now) but very nice and close to the best you can get, throw and overall quality IMO.
