    The Racer X Fabrication shifter box for the 1991-1995 Toyota MR2 was created to replace the worn out OEM shifter box assembly. The OEM shifter box assembly is typically rusted, the bell crank bushing pin is worn from years of use and the polymer shifter cup is sloppy. Introducing the Racer X shift box, we started with the mounting plate that is bolted to the body. The mounting plate is CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and it eliminates the rubber grommets or shifter base bushings to provide a solid mounting foundation for the remaining components. The cable stay attaches to the mounting plate with stainless steel hardware, the cable stay completely encompasses the shifter cable head and retains the OEM spring clips. This reduces the possibility of any flexing in the cable during shifting. Moving on to the MR2 shift cup socket, we machined the internal diameter to be smaller to apply additional pressure on the worn out OEM polymer cups which brings new life to the feel of your shifting. The bell crank now uses a precision sealed bearing and a new OEM spring. The spring sits on a CNC machined bushing providing optimal tension and translates into the feedback that a new shifter should provide. The complete Racer X shifter box is anodized black for corrosion resistance and is designed to work with the 91-92, 93+, TRD, Super Klasse and Fidanza / B&M shifters.

    The Fidanza / B&M shifter no longer has the issue of the 1st gear contact between the Bell crank and shifter that is often found in the OEM shifter box.

    **NOTE: Does not include shifter, shift knob, OEM shifter spring or polymer cup.

    Pros:
    • high quality
    • good instructions
    • easy install
    • far superior to stock
    Cons:
    This shift box is an absolute must for the SW20. I assume with shift feel is the sort of thing that slowly degrades over time as the parts wear so you don't actually realise how bad it has become. For me it actually took someone else to point it out to me. Well I'm glad they did because with this thing installed the car feels new again. It's extremely solid and fluid at the same time, totally effortless. I was getting some rotation in the shift lever and it would move horizontally quite a bit in neutral, now it's totally solid, amazing. You can tell the kit is extremely well made as everything just slots in and lines up perfectly. Install was pretty straight forward, I knew nothing about shift boxes before hand but used a combination of the instructions on this page and the YouTube install video by @ValeeMeetz (great job man).

    Given that this product didn't have any reviews, I was a little worried at first when it came to purchasing it. However, someone out there has to be the first so I decided why not me? I bought 2 of these shifter boxes early December, one for me and one for my girlfriend's MR2. I got to say, the unboxing of this product made me feel like I had just won the lotto. The quality of the packaging made the unboxing process SO much more exciting. With every layer that was removed, a new beautiful looking aluminum piece was revealed. The quality of the product itself... stupendous.
    On top of that, the install was a breeze. Plug and play, no modifications needed (DISCLAIMER: If you are running any sort of after market shift lever, you may run into some issues with hitting trim pieces. I have one from MR2 heaven and I needed to modify my shifter trim cover).
    Overall, I'm very pleased with the quality, look, and feel this kit has. It comes with EVERYTHING needed to replace the old shifter box. The ONE thing I would say could be improved is having an installation guide for the kit. I installed mine fairly easily because I've been around cars for quite a while, however my girlfriend has not, so assembling everything for her was a bit more difficult since there were no instructions on how to assemble everything together.
    Nonetheless, amazing kit. Amazing feel. I also filmed a POV video of the installation and assembly (given that it does not come with instructions) so if anyone is interested, I'll be posting my video soon @ValeeMeetz on YouTube!
