Okay I guess now that I have time to post..... This is a great piece of art work and it is very functional!!! I got mine last week and have been driving with it for a week and it is great!! Very easy to install if you have the cold air intake.

Thank you Mike can't wait to see what else you guys come up with!

I love my NST SSK. Installation was almost too easy, it took 5 minutes. My shifts are so much better than stock now, those of you who don't have one are really missing out. Go get one now!

Would NST consider making a Version 2 of the short shifter that gives a little longer throw and lighter shift action?

Perhaps 50% of the stock throw?

I've just driven my car after almost two months of waiting. I installed the SSK while it was still being worked on and the stock intake was removed, so it was extremely simple to setup.

As far as the feel goes, it's certainly an improvement over stock, although it does make a bit more strength to get it into the proper gear. I'm thinking one out of two will happen: Either it will become softer after a while, or I'll get used to it.

Either way, I'm loving this mod so far. It does make the Yaris more fun to drive. Oh, and the price is pretty good too.

Keep up the great work, Mike! Looking forward to installing the rest of the NST goodies!

Just installed mine today. Thanks to Paul and the guys at Dezod as well as Mike and the NST team and of course all of you who contribute to YW.

I would call it a firmer feel with more precision. I have no problems shifting into 5th or reverse like other members have reported.

I agree with KIOSHI that this SSK gives it a feel much like that of the 350z/G35.

We work very hard to bring you guys quality products at an excellent value, and our name has stood the test of time very well over the past few years.

I'm guessing you ordered this piece from Dezod... a great place to inquire about anything motorsports related. Dezod FTW

Just installed my short shifter that I bought from cali yaris' store. Shifts really stiff and short, as advertised.

I have one problem though, I couldn't get the OEM pin that's supposed to go into its original hole to secure the short shifter to the original pole. I went ahead and put the rest on with no problem, you guys think that's ok? This is probably due to some design differences with the USDM ones from our local ones (Philippines). And I have a 2NZ-FE engine which is a 1.3 variant of the US ones. I haven't driven it but I did try to shift and it seems to work as advertised. Is that ok?

I'm in the US and I have the same problem in mine ,my OEM pin won't fit either to the original pole.

Unfortunately some of the 08 models seem to have different OEM components when compared to the older models. This seems to be something from Toyota's end... they may have possibly sourced some of their components from a different supplier for some of the 08 models.

Some are leaving the OEM pin out... some are filing a bit away from the bottom of the SSK... others who don't want to mess with anything are encouraged to return their unused SSK to exchange for an in-cabin NSTSSK09-2.

Hi John,

You should be ok. We suggest checking your SSK from time to time to make sure that everything is in the correct place, and working properly.

Good luck and have fun with your project!

so I saw on a later thread that the kit in the engine bay has a 30% shorter throw, the one in the cab has a 25%shorter throw. Is this true? The one that goes in the cab I saw was a little cheaper, so does the extra 5% make that big of a difference? Is it worth the couple extra dollars?
