Short Throw Shifter Info
1 Attachment(s)
What is the most agressive/least movement required short-throw shifter out there? Anyone have pictures, and able to compare one side by side with a stock 94-ish shifter? Dimensions would be even better. I need to know how long I can make the "tail" without rubbing in the "tunnel".
I made a shifter handle for my Seven, but after installing it, I realized there was too much throw with it on, so I had to revert to my old one. I did not notice it on my Subie, because I had a factory "performance" shifter on it initially, that had less throw than the stock shifter, and it worked ok. Therefore, I am going to have to make a new shifter. Because I have been having problems finding a good boot that will fit with the Seven transmission tunnel/shifter, I think I am going to make a stainless shaft/stalk, maybe .5" diameter, and then once it's installed and working, I think I am going to make a gated shifter "base", or whatever you call that, at school. It'll keep me busy at school, as well as take care of the boot issue. That and look nice. So, anyone have any photos or specs? Nate SteyrTMP https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1348736622 |

Bob: Are you running a "short" or "tall" shifter with your 6 speed? We spoke at MRLS in April/May and you recommended it, but I forgot to ask about the height.

You could scale the image at MiataRoadster.com. I can do it for you if you give me real measurements of something in the photo, i.e. the distance between bolt holes in the boot. I probably have an old boot that I could measure, but I'd have to dig for it.

Yeah. I leooked around and it seems that all the true short throw shifters for the miata utilize that spacer. I was hoping to be able to avoid that, but it doesn't look like I can lengthen the fulcrum without lifting it. Bummer

Bob is running the tall version. It's not just the geometry of the ball - the base/fulcrum are changed with the MR kit. You won't be able to replicate it for the money if you time is worth anything.

When you buy that, remember that the owner of Miata Roadster wanted me banned and threatened to pull his sponsorship until I was banned, lol.
|
Hussy, aren't you were running one of these magical MR shifters as well?

The sister car has one in the 6 speed. It must be made of unicorn loins because it does make the 6 speed feel bearable. I'll be ordering one up at some point.
