[edit] Short and Quick Shifters
Rip through the gears with a short shift kit! Shortening the shift throw on your Scion xD will help you make those critical shifts when they count. Fast shifting is essential for performance driving and we recommend replacing the factory shifter unit with one of the aftermarket versions that shorten the distance between the gears. Each aftermarket shifter will change the shift throw by a different amount so find the one that best suits you. Some are also adjustable. Make your Scion xD even more fun to drive with a short shifter!
