Dinan's billet short-shifter kits reduce the amount of throw necessary for gear changes, providing a sportier feel.
Larger BMW models with larger gear boxes require more leverage for gear changes, which is why BMW employs different shift handle configurations for various applications.
The Dinan short shifters are also application specific to achieve an appropriate reduction of throw, providing the associated benefits without making the desired gear difficult to locate or requiring inordinate effort; a common complaint with other manufacturers' short-shift kits where a ''one size fits all'' approach is used.
In addition, Dinan's short-shifters retain the nylon pivot ball and shifter bushing, ensuring the same smooth and quiet operation as the original shifter.
Other manufacturers' shifters use metal components which tend to be noisier and induce a notchy feel.
The short-shifter is rubber isolated for a solid feel and vibration-free operation.
Installation is simple.
Zero maintenance, Dinan's billet short-shifter has a 20% to 25% reduction in throw with a self-lubricating bearing for the ultimate in smooth short shifter technology.
