It seems that few aftermarket BMW parts manufacturers get the acclaim that Racing Dynamics does, and it's for good reason. The U.S.-based company has a long history of producing only the best aerodynamic and performance parts for Bavaria's finest sports cars, and if it'll make your BMW look or perform better, there's a good chance that Racing Dynamics makes it. The best part is, even though we're talking about BMW parts, they are surprisingly affordable. No unnecessary hype, just quality parts that work!
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.
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: 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 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.
