Hey guys, Alex from AmericanMuscle.com and today I'm bringing you my quick review and breakdown of the SR Performance Short Throw Shifter for the year 2011 through 2014 Mustang GT and V6. So in this video I'm going to talk about who this short shifter is going to appeal to, the construction and materials that went into this, what this is going to do to your wallet and then what it's going to take to get this installed on your Mustang, where I'm gonna be giving this a very easy one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter and about an hour's worth of labor and I'll have a little bit more for you on that later. So the SR Performance Short Shifter that I have here today is going to be a good option for any GT or V6 owner out there that's looking to get a shorter throw inside of their Mustang while spending the least amount of money out there but still is going to reduce that throw upwards of 30%. This shifter from SR Performance is going to be for the Mustang owner that's using their car as a daily driver or a weekend warrior in comparison to a car that's going to be seeing regular track day abuse. So while this short shifter will reduce your throws it's not going to be built with the same intentions of some of the other options out there which are gonna come with different mounting points as well as having different brackets, but if you're just looking to firm up your shifts as well as just make your day-to-day driving experience better, this is going to be a great option for you. So if you've owned your GT or V6 for a little while now, at this point you probably know that the MT82 isn't the best transmission built, so while the stock shifter is suitable for daily driving, it does have its fair share of complications, our customers give us a lot of feedback here and the MT82 just has a little bit of a longer throw being in stock form, could be a little bit on the mushier side when you're power shifting and due to the lockout it can definitely be tough when you're jamming it into gear. Last but not least, it's just a little bit on the weaker side. So while a short shifter isn't going to fix or solve the integrity of the transmission itself, the SR Performance Short Shifter that we have here today will reduce your throws upwards of 30% as well as getting rid of that soft feeling. So one of my personal favorite aspects about installing a short shifter on any Mustang is going to be that more rigid or real feeling that's going to give you a little bit more connectivity to your car, which is something that the stock shifter just doesn't provide. So a few small things that I wanna talk about before we get into the construction and materials of the shifter here, is that this part is typically something that has a tendency to be at the bottom of your build list and that's honestly just going to be because it's not a performance part that's gonna give you a gain, it's not going to be something where it's going to increase your sound like an exhaust system, but at the end of the day considering a manual Mustang, you're going to be using this continually all the time, you would honestly be surprised at how much of a change it's going to provide your car. So while these next two parts are not going to be included in this kit, these are gonna be a pair of mods that I would definitely recommend doing at the same time, as it's just gonna make that experience that much better. First and foremost I would really recommend getting into a braided and stainless steel clutch line as that's gonna improve the transfer of fluids to prevent any type of lockout. Now secondly, on a bunch of our '11 through '14 fleet cars, when we've done any type of short shifters before, we've actually removed the clutch spring that's behind the clutch pedal, before it had that put in place to give it a little bit more of a softer feel. By removing that, that's going to improve the release point and give you a little bit more of a direct input. So in ter
