How to Install a Short Shifter and Adjust Shift Cables

It’s time for another R32 modification and upgrade. In this video I will show you how to install a short throw shifter and properly adjust the shift cables. Installing a short shifter can be an easy modification and dramatically improve shifting speed, and feel. Proper shift cable adjustment is vital to performance. This is just one part of the upgrade for the shifter on the R32. Dieselgeek also makes a bushing kit that brings the shifter back to even better than stock.
