The other day I got a robot fully adjustable short shifter. Just need to install it. Has anyone heard of them or have one? Will they snap during hard shifting? It's made of mainly ss.

 

never heard of neone having one man sorry

 

Guess you're the first. Good luck.

 

I seen that thing before, looked kinda ghetto if you ask me...but that's just my $.02.

 

never heard of it.. you shouldnt be shifting "hard" anyway.. shift quickly but try not to force/slam it into gear... i kinda cup the shifter w/ my hand and manuever it in gear quickly.. instead of gripping on it and shifting hard..

 

oh , i didnt think that was out yet , comes with a robot to shift for you , ultra quick response----wizzzzord

 

i believe they are actually called the "robo" shifter.
as long as you are not slamming into gears, it should be fine.

 

I don't trust it. Too many adjustment points that look like they could slip or move around or whatever. I'm happy with my AutoZone generic short throw, best $40 I've spent on my car. Shifts feel great, retains stock shape and height, shift throws are shorter than in a stock Miata.

 

that looks nice, got a still shot?

 

huh? y not shift hard... iv seen the way some people shift and i swear if i drove there car they would think im breaking it!

 

freind of mine would grab the shifter as if he was clencing his fist around it and would slam his car into each of the gears.. had a bent shift fork and messed up his syncros... i usually just shift w/ like an open palm/cupping my hand on the shifter.. i still can shift smooth and quick.. but i dont slam it in gear like he does...

 

Those are 3 still shots superimposed using photoshop, to illustrate the distance from 3rd to 4th with my shifter. That's the only pic I got.

 

pace setter (yes that's right PACE SETTER) has a adjustible short shifter as well.......probably does the same thing yours does.......

 

jesus christ, dust your friggin dash already...
