    Genuine Porsche Part

    For fast, sporty gear shifting: the factory short shift kit reduces shift paths up to 35% on 996/986 (1997-2004) models and up to 20% on 997/987 (2005-12) models. That means more precise shifting thanks to perfect shift guidance and a sportier driving experience. Compatible with any factory shift knob.

    Comes with the new console shift mechanism, shift knob is not included.

    Fits the following models:

  • Boxster (all versions) 1997-12
  • Carrera (all versions) 1999-12
  • Cayman (all versions) 2006-12

    • Fitment Note: This will not fit the newer generation models.

    Not recommended for 2009-2012 Turbo S, GT3, or GT2 models.

    Note: gear-lever travel may be slightly restricted when the car is started from cold. Not compatible with Tiptronic or PDK transmissions.

    Totally Blown Away

    I have a 2004 996 GT3 and have owned the car since new. After 14.5 years of ownership, I decided to replace the worn yet still relatively new gear shifter with something a bit more sporty (shorter throws). I'm totally blown away by this new short shift kit, it entirely transformed my GT3!! This is the way the gears should shift right out of the factory.

    The short shifter improves the driving experience. With the Tube Exhaust upgrade, there is no craving for the latest and greatest 911 Turbo. See my separate review on the Tube Exhaust.

    Best money I've spent on my car yet. This should be standard in all Porsches. Tighter and shorter!

    Big improvement over stock shifter - shorter, more positive throws. Still uses the same nylon bushings as original rather than the steel bushings found on some aftermarket shifters. However, this item is far easier to install since it includes the shifter console and cable ends. Also, some other aftermarket shifters require machining of shifter console bores or the steel bearings to obtain proper fit.

    Easy installation and I had no experience doing anything like this. Hardest part was finding all of the screws holding the console in place. Took less than 2 hours.

    Kit came with no instructions, fortunately google sent me to Planet 9 with one contributor having step by step instructions of how to expose the shifter and install it. Would have been nice for DYIers to have some instructions of what to do. Otherwise, shifter has been great!

    This is a lot of bang for the buck. Exceeds my expectations, shifts smooth yet precise. Any Porsche with a S on its badge should come with the short shifter.
