famaya26 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Has anyone tried modding the 5EAT shifter to make it shorter so theres less of a gap between the Shift knob and the PRND panel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

famaya26 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Can't be that expensive right? Just cut and re-thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkumaMax Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 yea dremel and a lot of time. Plus a new Die to rethread the shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWSPECB Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Even if it only cost you $5 it would be a complete waste of time. And with that $5 you could get a foot long sub from subway. Way more satisfaction from a foot long sub than a "short shifter" for your auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just leave it alone and buy a Manual of I want a Short Shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaNu1142 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 That's exactly what you need... snappier shifts from P to R. Google found this: Scion Life - short shifter Day 1 with the lower shifter was awesome!!! It has a much sportier positive feel now. I love it. I also love how "knob" is censored on that forum... Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
