This short shifter is developed for those who want a noticeably shorter, more precise and more positive gear shift in their BMW. The construction is CNC-machined from 6061 aluminium, known from the aerospace industry for its high strength, low weight and stable quality, even under heavy load. This provides a strong and well-engineered solution for both serious road use and motorsport.
All aluminium parts are eloxed/anodised, giving an attractive finish while also protecting the surface against corrosion and wear. The result is a short shift that not only performs precisely, but also withstands demanding use on both road and track.
One of the major advantages of this model is the adjustable gear limitation. The gear shift can be set so you only have access to 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear. When the release lever in the gear shifter arm is activated, access to 5th gear and reverse is opened at the same time. This provides very controlled and secure gear selection and is especially an excellent solution for drift and drag race applications, where it is important to avoid mis-shifts.
When the short shifter is received, it must be lubricated with silicone grease between the shifter arm and the shifter block. This is important to ensure correct function, low friction and long service life.
This BMW short shifter is a strong choice for those who want better shift feel, a shorter throw and a more mechanical and precise shifting function than standard.
