Default Axxtion STS SoCal Test Fit for FREE

I just finished machining a couple of Short Throw Shifter's for the xA/xB first gen. These fit under the hood, so they do not change any hardware in the console. They are a true 54% reduction. Installs in 15 minute if you have to remove and reinstall the stock air box which is located above the lever extending out of your transmission. Install time is less if you have a cold air intake. They are made of 7075-T6 aluminum which, pound per pound, is stronger than steel. I'm located near Disneyland, SoCal. If one of you guys is local and want an STS for free for test fitting, hit me up.

thanx

will these work in conjunction with a pre-existing short throw shifter rod installed in the console?
Would you be willing to ship in so cal, if the reciever were willing to take photos of the install and provide notes, etc?

I have a single underhood Short Throw Shifter that will work with the xA, xB1, xB2, TC, Corolla 2.4, and the Matrix. Because I designed and manufactured all the underhood STS's for TRD, I was able to come up with a common design for all the above models resulting in a true 54% throw reduction. I have another STS that will work with the xD and Yaris also with a true 54% throw reduction.

The Axxtion STS can work in conjunction with a console STS. I actually installed one in a 2005 TC that already had a console STS so the shifts were extremely short. Front to Back movement is shorter than the Side To Side. This new Axxtion STS is a true 54% reduction. As an example, lets say stock front to back shift distance is 10".


Axxtion STS.............................................10" x 54% reduction = 4.6"

Your current STS......................................10" x 30% reduction = 7"

Your current STS and Axxtion STS................7" x 54% reduction = 3.2"

Thanx for the Interest,

The Axxtion Short Throw Shifter is available and will be shipped to you the next working day by Priority Mail. Axxtion offers the shortest throw and is the least expensive of any USA made Short Throw Shifter. By changing the pivot point on the transmission shift linkage this billet aluminum shift adapter reduces the throw by a true 54% throw reduction. The 7075-T6 billet aluminum shift adapter is stronger than the competition. Pound per pound, 7075-T6 aluminum is stronger than steel and twice as strong as others 6061-T6. Installation is also a snap taking only 10-15 minutes using simple hand tools and the provided instructions. The kit being offered is anodized clear and the $70.00 US price includes freight within the USA.

To get your new Axxtion Short Throw Shifter, you can log on to https://www.paypal.com/ and go to the "send money" link. You can send a payment to me, using my email address (axxtion@hotmail.com) in the amount of $70.00 USD which includes shipping within the US. $75.00 USD which includes shipping to Canada. Make sure you include a shipping address, make and model, and any other info you might think I need. I will ship it to you by US Priority Mail, the next business day.

thanx

i gave a couple of the Axxtion STS's away to members here for evaluation. They liked them and started a couple of threads on this forum with pictures and with descriptions of what they thought. The mods erased them and said i have to be a sponsor. i pm'd a mod to get a price for a sponsorship but i haven't gotten a response from them and heck, i haven't sold any either. I don't sell any other type of performance parts so it's not like i'm a big retail outlet. i'm a one man CNC machine shop with design capabilities who job shops aircraft parts. if you want pics or more info, email me at axxtion@hotmail.com

thanx
