CorkSport is pleased to announce the CorkSport Adjustable Shortshifter for the Mazdaspeed 3.
CorkSports Adjustable Shortshifter was designed to adjust your shift throw by up to 35% shorter than the plastic OEM shaft to allow for faster and more efficient shifting.
With two ways of adjustability, you can tailor the shift position by adjusting the height of the shift knob within a range of 4 inches and adjusting the distance of your shift throw. As a direct OEM replacement and maintaining OEM fitment, after installation you can opt to use the OEM Mazda shift knob or go for an aftermarket shift knob.
This is a great mod if you have a 6 speed manual transmission, you can install it yourself and you will clearly enjoy the new feel of the adjusted throw of your shift.
If you have a standard Mazda 3 or SkyActiv model call our sales team to be on our beta test team.

I hope all is well in your tinkering world. Things, I imagine, are at least beginning to thaw out from winter, and you’re making your plans to start installation of new parts, tweak old ones and get your wheels back on the road in time for summer.
Normally, my letters are filled with advice on who to avoid, who annoys the crap out of me, and basically the type of people I encounter in the car world, including you, Car Guy. This time though, I have some news, and it’s pretty fantastic in my opinion, but first I want to tell you about some things you might already know.
I’ve recently been thrown into a world. A world, I don’t know very well, hardly understand, and at times really question the reality of. This world is full of love/hate relationships, long distance friendships, camaraderie, and most of all SUPPORT.
A place where any and all questions can be answered with simple use of the search tool (newbs take note: NOT in the shout box). Where groans and thanks are given for any and all ideas or comments. Where wives, girlfriends, and random girls from the internet are shown in all their glory, much to the amusement of those doing the viewing. Where the guys go to hang out, chat, avoid work, find entertainment, make plans for an install, swap stories of triumph and failure, and all around give one another a hard time (all in good fun of course… sometimes).
As a platform Mazda is not huge, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in community. I have seen the Mazda community do some amazing things, support their friends in need, gift parts to those that are deserving, protect respected Vendors, stand up for what is right, and overall form itself into an online community of what I would deem as (mostly) “Good People”.
Forums connect Car Guy to Car Guy. Car Guys to the very few Car Girls, and of course vendors to Car Guys. It’s one big exchange of information, ideas, innovation, and experiences.
We’re able to come together for the sake of bettering the Mazda Enthusiast Platform, and to be honest I FIND IT AMAZING.
Now, mind you, this isn’t exclusively on the internet, and that’s where my news comes in to play. There are gatherings: Cars and Coffee, Nator Meets, and Dyno days at local Vendors. Coming up really soon, is an amazing gathering, one of grand proportions, in just a few short weeks: THE EPIC NATOR MEAT, or ENM as it’s so lovingly referred to.
Car guys gather for an awesome Dyno day, opportunity for Track time, dinner for a social gathering, and a parking lot FULL of Mazdas to show off and compare. It’s looked forward to by many in our platform every year, and especially for those here at CorkSport for a chance to get out of town for a bit and connect with everyone.
I write this to you, Car guy, excited as all get out, because CorkSport will be there! Prepared to answer any questions you have, place orders on the spot, get input and any product ideas you want to see happen. Mostly though, to make a connection with the amazing customers we serve, and to enjoy the time spent with fellow enthusiasts.
Typically, I’d just be excited to hear about it from the guys later. Hear them brag about how great it was, how well it went, and all the people they met. Except for the fact that, I’m the type of girl who likes to experience things first hand. So, I’ll be seeing you there!

Mazda will be celebrating 25 years of going topless with the MX-5 Miata at the New York International Auto show on April 18th..
The Miata brought to us on February 9th, 1989 at the Chicago Auto Show, started a following of enthusiasts from all across the board.
With the last known count of the MX-5 Miata at over 900,000 a few years ago there must be more than a million on the road or track by now. If you wonder why this is, just take one for a drive! Lightweight, RWD, durable, topless, and fantastic balance all add up to one of the best cars available to anyone and everyone, whether your budget is 3K for a used car, or just over 30K for a new hard top model you can’t go wrong! These cars are the go-to for autocross, track days, racing, weekend canyon carving, and many other fun events.
“Row, Row, Row your boost”
I suggest you take off your top and head down to the New York International Auto show to and celebrate 25 Years of MX-5 Miata going topless and see what new might be coming.
