This week on Money Pit, we’re replacing the 26 year old oem shifter with a Short Shifter. Along the way we’ll take a look at how short shifters actually make shifts shorter and we’ll see if it’s a worthy mod.
I’m also going to start including links to all the stuff that we use on the show for anyone that wants to check them out!

Yes, I watch your videos. Haha
Doesn't a short shifter feel heavier than stock?
Dude, you changed where the heat shielding schold be. I don't know, but i think that the heat will come off the transmission and damage the shift boot, and it needs to be mounted below the shift boot to prevent that.
I know u gotta f body man. Put a tick performance short throw shifter in it. You wont be dissapointed. Just put one in my trans am and I love it
You guys should do a tutorial on shifting for beginners, that would be helpful
Question, could you not just pull your bolts from the stock shifter, find the tpi and pitch and whatnot, then get longer bolts, throw some washers under it to raise the falcrum position? Or would that cause issues sealing?
I understand trying to avoid getting schwifty for that intro.
Please make a video swapping out an automatic transmission with a manual.
I run a short throw dipstick on my 99 civic hatchback

What happened to science garage
I drive automatic
At 4:00 mark , when he said "BR:";#;_;AMAA" I felt that.
What kind of shift knob is that?
4:35 anyone knows what diecast is that? I want one lol
1,77 seconds is a great time for 5speed shifting. I only made a 1,97 on my 5speed audi with a stock shifter😂 never got it right twice though
6:00 why is there a foot there?
Shoulda said lets get shifty lol
If your rev hang is kind of high, won’t this have minimal impact? Asking because i think I’d like to put a short throw kit in my 2006 Impreza (na) but I’m usually done shifting and waiting for revs to drop before i let clutch out anyways. I just don’t feel like the shifting itself is the limiting factor.
next time I will watch this video, I'll count how many times you use the word "shifter" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wasn't worth it on my WRX, ended up having to replace it because it kept giving me problems.
The Brad Leone of the car world
The real question is did u actuall drop all 3 in their is whats important 🤔 😏 👀 😌
We need a short throw shifter for our miata, where did you get yours?
Gotta keep that smile on ur face..lol
An inch off your shift travel length doesn’t mean much if u shift lightning fast
Anybody have a clue what shift knobs he is using?
The guy that put a short shifter on my WRX was a fucking idiot. Had to take that shit back to factory to get it to shift correctly. No fucking clue how he jacked it up.
is a new shifter knob worth it? we'll never know because he changed it off-screen lmao
Yes short throw shifters get rid of the time needed to shift gears, but I still wanna sound as smooth as a symphony, I don't wanna be a savage and shift like this 4:02
Schwifty
Where did you get that gear knob from ?
Who else likes manuel more then auto
Ive got a Hurst short throw shifter in my VE Commodore SSV (pontiac G8) and its night and day difference compared to stock. Worth its weight in gold.
I thought he was dying when he was demonstrating the timing of shifts between short throw shifters and long throw shifters
Man your Dash looks AWESOME
My girlfriend said she hated my short shifter. Bruh i dont even own a car 😂🤣😂🤣. . . wait
shorter shift is not good if u want to sit on it
Lets get shiftyyyyy lets get shiftyyy in hereeee
3:55 now i understand thanks for that that really strengthen my knowledge
i got an add while i was watching donut media's sponsor add...
*installs short throw shifter* *installs longer shift knob rendering the shifter useless*
What’s the shiftknob brand
I'm jealous of how easily that center console comes out. I drive a 500 abarth and there's like a bajiznilitillion screwes holding that thing in
Absolutely worth it !!!! Easier shifts too.
6:21 I want the M12 tool mount on the wall in the garage
Shift happens.
Wish changing mine was as easy
What about a hearse shift? Not sure if that is the correct name but it's the one where it basically just shifts by going straight back and up to downshift? Maybe you could help us understand what double clutching is.
Hell yes. One of the most effective, easiest to install, and cheapest mods that won’t effect your warranty.
Anyone know what that white shifter is?
One of my favorite host
How about a video gear/shift knob? If certain ones are better? Heavier? Longer?
You should do a video going corn fuel 🌽
Let's get shifty ~Rick Sanchez
Sally sells short throw shifters down by the sea shore
You can call it what you want but the shifter is a dildo
Every time I see something on this channel what seems cool for my car I see the price and realize that ain’t happenin
Yoo where can I buy that donut deck i saw it in the background looks lit
next mod miata seats
He Reminds me of a Paul walker
Woah at 1:50 he looks like Peter McKinnon!!
"Let's do this SHIFT"😂
But the short shifter looks taller than the old one
Are you willing to sell that Donut skate in the background?
The miata stock shifter that was smaller then the short shifter: You have become what you wanted to destroy.
4:02
This channel is very interesting to me and I always feel like I learn something while also being entertained, I wish school was as engaging as this for me so I would actually do good in class lol.
2:45 maybe wanna get some new seats 💺 bud... it’s kinda looking a little pre-owned if you know what I mean
This is great, for the feel it’s the greatest mod. Combine this with a gear lever extension and you feel the connection there!
Why did he look so blowed at the begining
Instructions unclear, why does my car sound like that now?
I'll stick with my Looooong one. I like my blue truck and the shifter was a good foot and half long. Had to be since the shifter came out of the floorboard almost below my knee.
Time to 'Get Shifty'
Meanwhile my biggest bottleneck is just waiting for the revs to drop from first to second. It takes like 2-3 seconds.
i love this miata build
Thank you I needed this
3:59 Everyone’s car
"When you drive a car you shift a lot!" *laughs in Regera*
I didn’t get it until he made the engine noises
3:53 basically the jist of the video
Short throw on a Miata is pointless
I'd be interested to see you get the car appraised and see what it's valued at. Show how much of a "money pit" it really is! lol
Peep the camera equipment buckled in.
Quarantine got me finna depressed
just drive an automatic, you shift instantly
Min 4.9 what the Frick happened to your seat
Zach reminds me so much of my nephew lol
3:53 this is why we watch...
Seriously reduced a big percentage of the improvement by putting a longer shift knob on there...wtf
automatic boiz crying rn
He would've been ok measuring new throw with a different shift knob.
Guys, in italy i can't find them, i can find only L short shifters that I hyto install in the engine...
I put a short shifter in my 02 Z28 and I'm not sure I'm any faster but it sure does have a better feel to shifting!!
This show makes me wanna drop out of my aviation program and transfer to an automotive program
stuck under the hood of your project car Me: *looks at curb/driveway/garage full of project vehicles* "haha yeah :("
What drugs are you on
Why not installing a sequential transmission
Let’s get shwifty
The opening shoulda been " let's get shifty with it "
The grind into 2nd gear 😭😭
Hand started WAYYY closer to the shift knob on the short shifter run
I think you put the heat insulation on backwards
