Hybrid Racing Adjustable Short Shifter is out!

[Unity Performance]

We've been patiently waiting for adjustable short shifter options, @HybridRacing is first to the drop

Highlights:

• Shorten throw up to 50%
• Shorten gate spacing up to 30%
• Adjustable knob height & position
• Next gen design - more durable & smoother

Available in Black or Red, we've gone with Red for our FL5 and will be trying it out with the Competition Shift Rod that's a one-piece rod + knob design. In stock at Unity Performance:

• Larger internal spring for reduced stress and improved return speed. Using a larger 2" diameter spring in our shifter serves two crucial purposes. Firstly, it helps reduce internal stress within the spring itself, ensuring it can operate effectively and maintain its performance over time. Secondly, the larger spring diameter contributes to improving the return speed of the knob after shifting. This means that the shifter mechanism can quickly and efficiently reset to its neutral position after a gear change, enhancing the overall responsiveness and efficiency of the shifter.

• Larger bearings for racing forces. Wishbone bearings, also known as spherical bearings or rod end bearings, are critical components in our shifters. By using larger wishbone bearings, the shifter is designed to withstand the substantial forces that arise during racing situations. These bearings allow for smooth movement and articulation of the shifter assembly, ensuring the driver can shift gears confidently and precisely, even under high-stress conditions.

• Stainless steel cable attachment pins for enhanced wear resistance. Stainless steel cable attachment pins offer increased durability and wear resistance compared to other materials. These pins are responsible for connecting the shifter mechanism to the transmission cables. Using stainless steel, the shifter is less prone to the effects of wear and corrosion over time, leading to a longer service life and maintaining consistent performance even in demanding racing environments.

• Complex carbon steel baseplate for weight reduction and rigidity. The incorporation of a complex carbon steel sheet metal baseplate serves the dual purpose of weight reduction and increased rigidity. Carbon steel is known for its strength-to-weight ratio, making it an ideal choice for structural components. The complexity of the baseplate's design includes strategically placed reinforcements and contours to achieve higher rigidity without adding unnecessary weight. This results in improved overall stability and a more direct transfer of shifting forces, ultimately enhancing the driver's control and feel.

Pics of the Hybrid Shifter in our FL5! Really enjoying it, and confidently able to shift at high rpm the first time we took it to the track

Technically you're supposed to run the Competition Shift Rod without a Shift Boot, but for the time being we've kept it on with an Acuity POCO Collar that was already on there

See it in action ?

Nice. I was liking the competition shift knob but wanted to have a boot on it. This makes it a win win.

Installed the HR short shifter yesterday. Slop in the OEM shiter is gone. I love the tighter gate and mechanical feel shifting through the gears. If I could redo the ordering of mods installed, I would put this on the top of the list. I am still using the OEM boot and shift knob but will order replacements through Unity.
