I'm new to Yaris and this forum alltogether, and I just looked through some old stuff here and found heaps of people promoting their best investment ever, the NST short shifter kit, which made the gear changing a different world, and was so easy to install, only some aluminium cube in the engine room.

Is this impossible to get these days? If NST doesnt make them anymore, does anyone else produce something similar?
It seems pretty interesting, and could be exactly what I need for my 2006 Yaris hatchback to make it fun :smile:

MI made a short run of them, but they are in the process of liquidating their stock on eBay. If you're slightly more mechanically inclined, you can do an in-cabin ssk. I have both the MI kit and a TWM in-cabin kit: http://www.twmperformance.com/shortshifters/toyotashortshifters/toyotayaris-2006-shortshifters.htm
The combined reduction in throw is enough that I don't have to move my hand for 1-2 and 3-4 shifts--just push with my index and middle finger.

Okay thanks :) The in cabin kit looks awesome, a little bit expensive though, specially when it has to be shipped to Norway!
