Fits Most BMW chassis such as E30, E36, E46, Z3, E39, E34, and many more. For only a few bucks over the Z3 shifter, you can have this adjustable throw unit with less play! Garagistic supreme short shifter is designed to be the tightest shifter on the market compatible with OEM engine and transmission bushings.
The Supreme Short Shifter is superior to the Z3 shifter upgrade in that our shifter is completely billet aluminum, while the Z3 shifter has rubber on the inside which can degrade over time and develop slop. So there will always be play in the system by design. The inside is filled with rubber and flexes as you shift. Although its a good way to shorten the throw on your E30 or E36, it not ideal. If you are unsure what length you will need, reach out to us at and we will help you figure that out! BETTER THAN THE OEM+ COMMON Z3 SHIFTER UPGRADE The Z3 1.9 models shifter have long been considered the OEM way to upgrade your shifter on your E30, E36, and E46 models. Please note: Because this shifter rod is straight (not bent like most BMW OEM shifters), many applications may require a custom length DSSR. This is the ultimate short shifter for your street driven BMW or track animal. Our Supreme Short Shifter does not eliminate the OEM shifter carrier unlike our Solid Shifter, so you can use this shifter with OEM rubber engine and transmission bushings! Garagistic is constantly making improvements on parts and the shifter now has a fully threaded center rod and ball for maximum adjustability and compatibility. Move it lower and throw becomes shorter and shorter as you move lower pivot down. The "longest" setting simulates what the common OEM+ upgrade z3 shifter would feel like. Not to mention you can adjust the throw to your liking.
This new Supreme Short Shifter with the same basic concepts in mind: easy to install and completely modular – meaning you can easily switch between different shifter rod heights and different shift knob types (something other short shifters do not have) and even allows the use of different length shifters and shift knobs from our solid mount family. For this reason, we came up with a short shifter option that does not sacrifice the comfort of OEM rubber bushings: the Garagistic OEM Supreme Short Shifter. While the solid shifter is great for the track there is a compromise of added noise and vibration in the car. However, due to the solid mounted design, stiffer polyurethane and solid engine and transmission bushings are required to run those chassis shifters. Garagistic introduced the Solid Chassis Mounted Shifter to the community to provide an affordable race shifter that is simple to install and completely reversible. To upgrade this EVO3 kit to include a DSSR, add T#348070. A DSSR can be added to any shifter setup (stock or aftermarket, including this UUC EVO3), and when combined with the EVO3, you will have the most accurate, most precise, and simply the best shift setup available for your BMW. Want the ultimate shifter feel, with the least amount of lateral play? Upgrade this kit by adding a UUC Dual Shear Selector Rod ("DSSR" for short). Delrin shifter carrier bushings INCLUDED! This is the best Short Shifter money can buy! UUC's Short Shift Kits include: T-304 stainless steel shift lever, sealed lower pivot bearings, and new installation hardware. All UUC Short Shifters are height-adjustable over a 3/4" range - giving you the same ergonomic comfort as the original. And new internal dampening material doesn't transmit vibration to the shift knob. The result is a shifter that is 35% shorter than stock but feels closer to the stock effort.
New EVO 3 edition! UUC's latest update has resulted in even smoother shifts, a reduction in vibration, and more features! UUC redesigned all of the pivot points in the shift linkage to reduce notchiness.
