    great product... install was simple... shifts feel amazing...
    Does this replace the short shift kit? Do I remove any short shift kit i have under the hood before installing this?
    So Far, So Awesome-



    I purchased this short shifter shortly after their release in April 2014. And all I have to say is- finally!



    Finally there is a reasonable alternative to the $450+ full short shift replacements.



    I installed this mid/late-April along with the CS shifter base bushings after receiving my order (Corksport actually called me to inform me my order would be a little late. An actual phone call, go figure. +10 for customer service) and installed the CS base bushings, CS short shifter, and plopped my Razo RA68A (fantastic knob btw) on top. I ended up having the linkage attached to the shifter at the 2nd to shortest setting, and the knob height maybe 1 1/2 - 2cm above the lowest setting.



    I gotta say, holy hell. The shifter now feels like what the stock shifter SHOULD have felt like. MUCH shorter and more pleasant to use in both daily and high-throttle circumstances. A long time ago I drove my buddy's Speed MX-5 and was impressed with the shifter, and this model is not too far behind. Slamming through gears is very quick and almost faster than the synchros (or maybe my left foot?) can handle. Do note it really doesn't affect your 2-3 and 4-5 shifts, but the 1-2 and 3-4 shifts are magic.



    The only con that I can think of is really that it doesn't have the bend of the original shifter, which leaves it a bit off center and about a cm away from the ebrake during 6th, but I really don't find that to be an issue. I have seen some more OCD forum members complain about that, however about a week or two of use and it hasn't really bothered me.



    It's been 8 months now and I have no complaints. Would definitely recommend. Do the shift base bushings and a nice heavy knob at the same time and you won't regret it.
    will this fit MS6?
    What a fantastic upgrade! Kills the terrible shifting experience when adjusted to your liking. Install wasn't bad at all except for one stupid clip! Seems this car is stuffed full of annoying clips all over. Kicks the crap out of the CS shift plate too as I uninstalled that shortly after except for the reduced weight. A+
    Havent bought this yet.... But if i already have the short shift plate will this still make any difference? Will i have ultra short shifts?
    Can I use this with your short shift plate and brushings?
    Will this ever be made for the 5 speed 2nd gen mz3??
    What are the chances that this will fit my MZ6 or that you guys make a short shifter for the MZ6?

    Is there any reason not to have this AND the short-shift plate together?

    What is the thread pattern of the shifter? I bought a new shift knob but none of the adapters seem to fit so I want to make sure I have the right size in mind before buying more

    Just curious if there has been any adjustments or modifications to the shifter recently. I have seen a lot of post talking about the alignment and how it’s off to the left or how it’s doesn’t sit in the same neutral spot as OE. Thanks, Tyler

    Again, a question from Japan. I'm sorry if it's a strange text because it will be translated and written. 2010-2013 Does a malfunction occur when the Mazdaspeed 3 Adjustable Short Shifter and Mazdaspeed 3 Short Shift Plate are installed together? Please answer as international calls are difficult.
