ShiftKit3 adds the OEM 93+ shift lever to Shiftkit2. Proven upgrade for 91/92 cars. Tested in the MKI with 90% success rate.
One of the easiest,& most noticeable upgrades I've installed on my '87 MK1! Night & day difference in under an hour.Should've got this kit a long long time ago! Yeah,shifter does rub on center console a bit when shifting intp 5th or reverse,but the pro's outweigh the con's by far! Really happy with the kit & highly recommend it!
I ordered my shift kit with the 93+ shift lever and a shift knob. Installation was a breeze. I had one quick question about one of the installation steps, so I called twos r us and they offered great assistance, couldn't have been any better. Every piece that came with this kit was of the highest quality. I couldn't believe the difference in shifter throws after installing this kit...Short and quick. For those currently running a stock shifter this kit is a must have!
Installed this kit in my 86 NA MR2 and felt immediate improvement in shifting. The lowering plate positions the shifter a little better for me, and the short shift shortens the throw enough to improve my shifts (a little) without translating 1mm movements in to gear changes (a friend's car does this, its infuriating). Good quality kit, good instructions (though its all pretty straightforward).
Installed this kit on my 86 mr2 without the 93 shifter. Much shorter throws and it drops the knob right where I want it. Shifts are clean and crisp. Before I had problems with binding, half way engaging the syncroes and getting stuck. Nothings worse than grinding gears while your showing off! This kit fixed that too. Awesome buy, I love it.
I purchased a shift kit 3 with 93+ Shift lever to put into my 87 mr2. Alot of people have had issues with installing this kit. It wasn't a direct fit but it's not designed for the MK1. If you have any issues with the install of this item feel free to email me starscream37@hotmail.com and I can help you out. Thanks again twos R us for another high quality product.
This is a great kit! Easy to install, makes a noticable difference in shortening shifter throw. Very precise shifting. I like it.
Great kit. Easy install. The lowering plate and bracket for the shift cable offer minimal but noticeable changes for the better in shift throw and overall positioning. The bushings really make shifting feel more precise.
Love these short shift kits with the brass bushings. Have them on both of my MK1's. Perfect amount of shift travel, and you can still fit the leather boot. I later added the brass bushings, and that improved the shift feel even more. Also made it easier to get into reverse on my 89SC.
A complete night and day difference. Highly recommended...This is a great product and it came with everything included for a quick install (30 min) Toyota should have made this standard for all MR2's
real easy to install, way better then my 91 shifter, shifting also improved
Just got my shift kit today for my '87. Came with 93+ lever polished red knob and the leather red stiched boot. Very very satisfied with this product, shortend the through signifigantly. 5 stars, a must for mk1 owners!! Only Two things, i had to file the right side of the selector housing to get the shifter to go into 5th and R, no big deal. And since the 93+ lever sits to the right more than the mk1 lever the new boot i got hits the right side of the plastic arm rest area around the shifter. Thanks for this amazing product at half the price of TRD!!!!
The drop plate is not aluminum as pictured but is a high quality, durable acrylic. The whole kit made a huge difference on the quality and feel of the shift. Made my 91 n/a feel like a brand new car! Probably my favorite upgrade on the car because you get to experience it everyday.
Installed on a 1987 MR2 NA. Pros: The kit significantly lowered the throws between gears. It looks much better than the stock shifter assembly - a smaller shifter for a smaller car. Also, the installation wasn't took hard, and only took about an hour and a half altogether with no instructions. The appearance and shifting overall is improved at the price of the shifting being a bit more stiff. Cons: The forward/back shifter cable bracket was off just a bit. The hole that the forward/back cable is suppose to reattach to was too low, which cause the bolt not to go in all the way. It took about 10 minutes to find and file down the shift lever in order for the cable to reattach properly with the new shifter. I filed off about 1/16'' off the shifter to make it fit. Unfortunately the center console (armrest) is now in the way of the shifting when going into 5th or reverse. I'm assuming this will show some wear on my already crappy, blue, console after awhile. It isn't anything to worry about, it just slides into it a bit. Other thoughts: The instructions are on the front page of the website for those, like me, who did not know. No indication was made on the item to where the instructions were, but I found them shortly after* I installed everything. I had just bought a new shift boot a few months ago to replace the stock one that was torn. This turned out to be useless now that the boot covers the shifter, knob and all. Installation tip: When installing the shifter, it may help to have an assistant hold the neutral return spring open while you put everything back together Final thought: Overall, an exceptional product at a small price.
I recently installed this kit in my 91 NA, and it is a complete night and day difference! I purchased shiftkit 3, and it really lowers the shift knob a lot. My arm rests on the console while my hand is on the shifter. This kit significantly reduces the distance between the gears. I feel like I hardly have to move it at all! It also tightens up the feeling of the shifter, which I find to be an added plus. Installation took less than an hour, and most of that time was spent picking my tool tray that I knocked over! I highly recommend this kit to any MR2 owner, you will be extremely satisfied with your purchase!
Standard shipping was fast, and the install was easy. Makes shifting so much sweeter. Great product.
Easy to install and performs great. This kit made a really noticeable difference in shifting and even made the shifter look nice! Thanks again for the great product Twos R Us!!!!!
I installed this kit in my aw11, with the 93+ shifter, the whole 9 yards. If you get the 93+ shifter, you HAVE to use the short throw linkage bracket piece, otherwise you will run into the shifter base before engaging 5th gear. With the whole kit installed, the shifter on mine still makes contact with the shifter base, but always engages just fine no problem, just makes a loud click sound when fast shifting. an even taller cable throw short shift bracket would help more with this, as there is more room to go to 3rd vs 2nd, and with less throw it will sit a tad further back and not need to go as far forward. I was a little disappointed to see that the drop plate was just plastic, not metal as shown in all the pictures, I felt a little gypped but I got over it. (Twos R Us Note - it is Delrin, which is not brittle like plastic would be. This switch was made because there was no need to use metal here, it's lighter and gave us some manufacturing flexibility. Sorry you felt gypped!) Other than that I love the feel of the shifter now! I got the solid linkage bushings along with the shifter base bushings, everything and Im very pleased.
I installed this shift kit on my 92 NA, the stock shifter and knob have a completely unreasonable height and I immediately ordered this kit to rectify the issue. I got this kit with the drop plate, 93 shift lever and matching ball shift knob. The knob and lever significantly lower the shifter height over an inch. Then the drop plate and short shifter components drop it almost another half inch. The solid base and shifter bushings are great they provide a more direct shifting feel, any mushyness is removed from the system. The short shift components although they provide a significant throw reduction, actually caused me to snatch first, second and reverse when shifting quickly; therefore undoing the potential benefits of having the short shifter in the first place. I had to uninstall the drop plate and the small bracket that adjusts the shifter cables for more leverage because of these issues. It may be different for you depending on the condition of your transmission but mine has recently had the syncromesh replaced and the kit was still not viable. Overall it is a great kit for 92s, the 93+ shifter lever and the knob itself put the shifter at a comfortable height, and the solid bushings for the mount, and the other end of the shifter cables provide a positive feel. It makes it feel like you have a solid shaft shifted transmission vs a cable shifted transaxle. The drop plate and cable bracket although reduced throw, caused gear snatching for me in my rebuilt transmission. After removing the drop plate my shifter worked fantastic. If you have a 92- I recommend the 93+ lever, knob and bushings not the drop plate. If you have a 93+ get the knob and bushings. I cannot recommend the drop plate to anyone from my experience, it may be different for you but it caused snatching that was eliminated upon uninstallation. Overall this is a good kit, I cannot give it a full 5 stars because of my issues with the drop plate but with the other components it makes my car very pleasant to shift at any tempo.
