Forge Motorsport Short Shifter for Toyota GR Corolla
Forge Motorsport Short Shifter for Toyota GR Corolla
The Toyota GR Corolla is a fabulous sporty hot hatch but there are still areas that can be improved upon. The gear shift is just one of those areas, the feel of the shift has a sporty feel however it is let down by the amount of travel in the gear stick. This short/quick shifter set has been developed by Forge to offer a crisp, short, and precise gear changing experience.
Designed and developed by our highly skilled team on the Solidworks CAD system, the CNC machined billet linkage clamps onto a section of the original item to produce a pleasing shortened up and down shift. Our design enables full adjustment and reduced throw of between 40% and 60% which allows the customer to tailor the short shifter linkage to achieve the perfect gear change for their style of driving.
The body of the shifter is manufactured from 6082 aerospace grade aluminium, then finished in black and red anodising for ultimate protection and durability. The machined stainless steel adjuster pin fits perfectly into the existing gear cable helping further to achieve a perfect shift.
As with all our products, a set of comprehensive fitting instructions are supplied to enable fitting with no specialist tools in under a hour.
Please note; The shifter linkage to the transmission is wider in the GR Corolla than the GR Yaris. If you adjust the throw all the way short, the end of the linkage may contact the fulcrum of the linkage, see last photo. You can either adjust it slightly longer or trim the very point of the plastic linkage that is making contact, which is what we did on the stock car. Even at the longest throw there is a drastic improvement over the factory throw.
