In for 190. Would prolly add shifter base bushings to my order as well.
We've got you added!


We've also extended the deadline. When we come back from the weekend, we expect to see this thread BLOWN UP lol.

Boomba - can you tell me (and perhaps anyone else that is interested down the road) the added benefit of adding this to my already existing transmission adapter and bracket bushings? I like the throw length of the 20% adapter, so what is the benefit of the short shifter assembly beyond an even shorter throw and better ergonomics?

FYI - not knocking this piece at all as I am sure it is amazing, but I figure since I am wondering about it... others probably are too.

It's too bad this group buy wasn't offered sooner, with the number of people who already have this we'd have met our required amount ages ago lol

You can leave it at 20%, go to 28% or even a 40% reduction depending on what holes you use in the shifter. Last picture of the first post shows it

So let's say I leave it at 20% reduction. What other benefits will I see?
The bend in the shifter is greater bringing the shift knob closer to the driver. Other than that not too much, there's a picture around here somewhere of an overlay of the two shifters showing the difference.

We are excited to announce a group buy for our Short Throw Shifter for the 2014+ Fiesta ST!

This high quality shift lever is built for performance without compromising comfort. It installs easily, replacing the OEM shift lever on your Fiesta ST with no modifications required to the surrounding console. The bend in the short throw shifter has been doubled to 30 degrees, allowing the shift knob to sit closer to the driver in a much more comfortable position, all while retaining full functionality of the reverse lockout. With 3 selectable positions, the shifter can be left in the STOCK position as well as reduce throws by 10% or 25%. The shift lever can also be used in conjunction with Boomba's fully adjustable Fiesta ST short shifter transmission adapter plate, capable of shortening throws by up to 40%.

The short shifter is designed and manufactured in Boomba's manufacturing facility, right here in the United States and all mounting hardware are included. All shift levers are precision CNC machined black oxide billet steel and black anodized billet aluminum for maximum strength and long lasting durability. A definite mod for daily drivers as well as autocross and road racing enthusiast!

For those on the fence, see this write-up by rodmoe!

If there are 10+ participants there will be a 10% discount
If there are 20+ participants there will be a 20% discount

Did someone drop out? I see a name missing...
ChrisG bailed on us. If we don't make the group buy number of people, we will still probably run a special promotion for the people who signed up here :)
