[mhill]

Hi i'm new here, and have recently got an MR2 and have been doing a few mods. I am looking to get a gated shifter. Does anyone know where to get one?

Thanks

Never seen one for a 2.

The Gears are quite close though ! Do they do one ?

The first gated shifter kit for the MR2 and... it features adj. throw length too!

The gated shifter for the MR2 is our own development!

The kit includes a completly re-designed mechanism to allow the mounting point of the shifter cable to be placed lower without increasing throw length. Also, this is an adjustable short shift

kit too!

To create the gated shifter, it was necessary to replace the fat stock lever with a thinner one.

In order to obtain the necessary firmness, it was mandatory to use special material. The new

lever is a chromed forged steel in the same quality used for rods and pistons.

Shown in the pictures is a very nice looking aluminum cover (unfortunately, a bit to bright on

the pics), but other covers are available. Also, other optional custom covers can be produced.

Included in this kit is also the black shift knob you see here.

Prices

Gated shifter kit (incl. round shift knob) in

aluminum, clear or red anodized......... 150 EURO

A place near to where my mate works makes them for the Ferrari kits. I personally think they look naff (as per posted picture) but could get you some more info if you want.

I fitted a short shift, but the gairet no longer fits, its too baggy, if anyone has fitted a short shifter please can you tell me what you done about the gaiter.
