Short-Throw Shifter

A short-throw shifter reduces the distance between gears by 30-50%, allowing faster, more precise shifts. It changes the pivot point or lever ratio of the shifter mechanism so each gear engagement requires less hand movement. On cars like the Miata, WRX, or Civic Si, it transforms a vague, rubbery stock shift feel into a mechanical, rifle-bolt action. Combined with solid shifter bushings, it's the mod that makes manual driving feel like what you imagined it would when you first learned to drive stick.
