Mazdaracing Quik Shift OWNERS!!!!!
 

I'm planning on buying a short (throw) shifter because the stock shifter bushings are done.

The Mazdatrix short shifter is stock height after installation with approx. 42% decrease in throw.

The Mazdaracing Quik Shift claims 60%, but I was wondering if the MR quik shift is at stock height (the knob, that is)??

Any responses would be appreciated, also please state which knob you are using. Thanks.

P.S. Anyone else buying a short throw shifter.. the prices are as follows...

One piece construction shifters

Mazdatrix ... $192.00
Mazdaracing ... $169.00

Two piece shifter

C's Short shifter (eBay) ... $220.00

hmm.. a short shifter would be a nice touch :D

screw stock!

I have the mazdaracing shifter. Its absolutly KICK ASS. Compared to stock the throws are tiny!

Over all its the best on the market I already did the computations for all other short shifters and none are close to the 60%+ reduction with the mazdaracing one. The shifter knob is a little bit lower with the short shifter but not insanely lower. I am running a stock S4 Shifter.


If I could do it again I would get the same one. Its damn cheap and works great!

PS- Second choice would be a hIGGItrix one which is right up there!

hIGGItrix... $150

NICE PRICE, but how much of a reduction do you think there is on Higgitrix short shifter?? and knob height??

throw reduction is same like c's

knob height is same like stock, but threaded part is longer so u could cut it if u want knob sit lower and still have threads for it

Unless you're a really cheap SOB like me.

Cut 1" off the threads.
Drill a ball knob to set as low as possible.
tap for an oversized set screw.
Short shaped piece of heater hose to hide the chrome ring & shaft.

i like your radio ^

wanna sell it??? ;)

dang higgi i love your shifter but the reason i need a new shifter is for the bushings, doh...let me check out the price for bushings, etc.

Yea - it was the CD/casette combo & it worked, but I sold the 91NA last October.
(After swapping the shifter to the turbo.)

Where do you get the mazdaracing shifter from?

http://www.mazdaracing.com/

i'm looking to do the same 2 so i'm very interested on where to get it as well

I can't believe you guys are doing business with Mazdaracing.

I personally haven't had any problems with MazdaRacing.com. Their pully kits, short throw shifters, and shift knobs looks top notch though.

I am waiting for them to finish the FC serpantine pully kit.

Jeff is a pretty nice guy. I don't know if all your guy's claims carry through. Alot of people on here like to B.S. and make false acusations just to cut his business down. Get with it. If an item isn't shipped, reverse it on the credit card. Or just use paypal!

Doesn't their website claim like 10+ hp gain just from pulley swap?

I have the mazdaracing short shifter, and it works great. i got it in december for 130 something shipped! also purchased their shift knob, which looks very good. however, after about 3 hours of driving my car with the shifter, my 5th gear got fubared, and i am unable to get 5th gear to engage, its like something is blocking the gate. i do not know if the shifter was the cause of this, but im getting a t2 tranney soon and will be installing the shifter in it.

NA transmissions are not very durable/strong.

do any shifters other tham mazdatrix come with bushings?

I would not buy from mazdaracing, especially their pulleys. They weigh just about as much as the stock ones if not more. I got them off of them and put the main one on and all it did was scrape against my engine. I called them and told them and they tried telling my mechanic did something wrong and has been building rotaries for a long time. So i would not buy anything off of them, they are full of shit.

higgi do you sell one with the bushings? my bushings are shot too and i'm torn between getting an EGT gauge and a nice short-throw shifter

nope, mine is for $150 shipped, but without bushings

it was project mainly for our club cars and we usually re-used old bushings

I have the mazdaracing short shifter kit with a razo knob and I love it! It sits a little shorter than stock and going from gear to gear is really short. Comes with new bushings and makes it feel very notchy almost like a video game, not sloppy like the stock shifter.

Mazdaracing shipping costs
 

what are the shipping costs to canada? I need a short throw shifter and am having a hard time making a decisiion. Just saw the mazda racing one. Looks sweet, anyone have pics of it installed with their shift knob also, that rotary engraving looks tits.

got pics? whats the thread size? on the website they say it will only work with their knob or a pre 89' stick knob. Id like to see this razo knob
