Default Short Shifters
Ok..I don't have a real grasp on all this so correct me if I'm wrong. But a stock shifter from a M3 will give us a shorter throw in the 318ti?? If not is there a stock shifter from a different car that gives us a shorter throw or are we just stuck buying a aftermarket short shifter.

Many OEM levers will work. Here are some options....

• Z3 1.9 (Most hassle free) - http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=2331

• M Coupe/Roadster (Bending required) - http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=9447

• E36 M3 (Possibly hassle free) - http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3156
