6 speed owners-MUST DO MOD- URD Short Shifter
Just got done installing my URD Short Shifter kit in my 06 Tacoma. That thing is straight up awesome. I was never real happy with how the 6speed shifted. The short shifter reduces the throw by 44%. The gears are so much more solid and close together now. 1st and 2nd are only about 3 inches apart now. Before if I got on it really hard in 1st I could never get a clean shift to 2nd. Last night on my test run I broke loose sideways on the pavement grabbing 2nd it was awesome. If you have the 6speed goto URDUSA.com and order one now! It's only $130 and takes about 30 minutes to install. Here's a short vid for some comparison of the shifter throw now.

Yes, there are short throw shifter kits for 5-speeds.
Here's the URD link.

so how exactly does that short throw work? is the height of the shifter above the vehicle floor still the same or is it way down there? i always just thought a short throw shifter shortened the shifter, which would inherently have a shorter path to take to get to the gear, but i wouldnt want to be reaching down to t he floor to shift! please enlighten me
