Special edition IRP Short Shifters V3 with red lock out button are now available. They reduce shifter throws by 60% and increase the height of the shifter for quicker shifting.
This one also features a shift pattern engraved on the top of the knob. |

I paired this short shifter with a custom dog box. Incredible results. I'll be posting about the dog box shortly. We can definitely arrange a group buy. I'll get you guys connected directly with the exclusive USA distributor.

I have this shifter on my car and OMG it's so amazing how it changes the car. Quick precise and satisfying shifts and love that rally car look.

If only it had as default some plastic covered knob to enable comfortable use at weather extremes w/o wearing gloves. I wonder if it can be threaded to use something like plastic knobs from hybrid line of Raceseng.

It'd sure be nice if they offered a version that reused the stock knob. I'm done with metal shift knobs here in Florida. |

Yoshoobaroo: that's the point, that for raceseng hybrid knobs most have metallic core and colored plastic surround from sides with open top #1 #2 #3 #4. Hence i imagined something similar, but instead that core IRP's gear lever. Milling down & threading as needed. Leaving IRP's top reverse lockout button in middle. If those cores are of similar dimensions & thread across raceseng hybrid knobs, then one even can have extra choice between which shape will fit one better. And just that plastic cover from spares is rather cheap, ~ $35.

Just installed my shifter with the rubber gasket, 4 nylon washers and the poly urethane bushing as shown in the video, yet this shifter is not just rattling its screaming lol? Most of the sound seems to be coming from the reverse lock out button because when i put my finger on it it quiets down a bit. This isnt normal is it?
