Video Description:This is an episode of Andy's Auto Sport TV that explains all the basics about short shifters. We explain what exactly a short shifter does and why it's beneficial to have. We also explain what a short shift adapter is and how it differs from a short shifter. In the back half of the video we do a pair of short shifter installations so that you can get a feel for what's involved.
Fits On:
2002-2003 VW Passat (B5/B5.5), 5-Speed manual transmission., Non Push-Down Reverse
Description:
NEUSPEED®’s Short Shift Kit (non-push down reverse gear) features a new billet steel lever that is approximately 1/2" shorter than stock and has a redesigned pivot point. The result is a 35% reduction in the throw length. A carefully calibrated counterweight machined into the shift lever retains the solid feeling of the stock shift mechanism.
Notes:
• Fits: 2002-03 VW Passat(B5/B5.5) 5-Speed manual transmission.
• If your car does not have a push down reverse gear lockout, this is the correct kit.
• For 1999.5-02 Passat(B5/B5.5) use Short Shift Kit # 66.10.61

Q: How do you install a short shifter?
A: Short shifters are installed by removing your factory shift lever from your transmission. Your center console will have to be removed along with your shift boot and shift knob in order to access the lower part of your shifter mechanism. Once removed, the short shifter should be directly bolted in and everything should be re-assembled. Instructions are included and installation takes around 30 minutes with ordinary hand tools.
Q: What is a short shifter? Why buy a short shifter?
A: A short shifter dramatically improves your shifting performance due in large part to reduced shifter travel, or "short throw". If you're in a performance situation, the additional seconds it takes for a factory stock shifter to go from one gear to another can result in a slower time. If you want speed, reduce the throw and increase your acceleration by getting a short shifter.
Q: Are short shifters available for every vehicle?
A: Short shifters are vehicle specific and are not universal. They are not available for any automatic transmission vehicles.
Q: What's the difference between a single bend shifter and a dual bend shifter?
A: The dual bend shifter sits closer to the driver and is the option we see most people going with when it's available for their vehicles.
