diy shortening shifter throw

Postby Nuty|Mike » Sun Jun 29, 2008 12:08 am

Was looking for short shifters for the Spyder and came across this diy for shortening the throw, I know its rangi and I know this is done on a mitsi but I assume the setup in any fwd or mr is similar.

http://www.3si.org/forum/f11/diy-short- ... al-248166/

No flaming its just an idea and hey its easy enuf to take it back to stock and forget you even did it.

Ideas and comments ???

I've got a short shifter for a MRS if you're still keen for one.

Hi Mike.
This is much less rangi than other short shift mods I've seen.
Take the guys advice and just do the front back throw.
Do it

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!
