Hi everyone,


TWM Performance is proud to introduce our brand new short shifter for the 2005 and up Cobalt SS/SC!


Owners of Cobalt SS/SC can now enjoy shorter and much more precise shifting with the most aggressive and shortest shifter available on the market. The TWM short shifter offers the best shift feel and the ultimate throw reduction people have been waiting for, while keeping the reverse lockout mechanism.


Here are the complete specs of this new short shifter:

-33% throw reduction
-1” height reduction
-full reverse lockout compatibility
-CNC machined shifter ball and shaft from high strength steel
-CNC machined aluminum reverse lockout
-delrin bushings and o-rings for smooth operation
-TIG welded for the ultimate in durability





Every step was taken during the development of this part to obtain the biggest throw and height reduction possible while keeping the reverse lockout mechanism. The TWM short shifter for the SS/SC also has a solution for many issues people have reported about other short shifters currently available on the market.

The TWM short shifter comes standard with a M1 Abrams RL aluminium shift knob. The shift knob can also be upgraded to a weighted stainless steel M1 Abrams RL in one of 5 unique finishes with an additional $25 saving!

The TWM short shifter is also available with optional aluminum base bushings for a more solid contact point between the shift assembly and the car. These bushings give an even more precise and solid shift feeling. The retail price for the base bushings alone is $24.95, however during the pre-order period they can be added for only $14.95.


TWM is offering a special pre-order price for the SS/SC short shifter from now until September 18th, of $174.95 for the short shifter and $189.95 for the short shifter with base bushings!

Weekend Bump!

 

Finally! Im ordering tomorrow!

 

I noticed the installation manual wasn't online yet. Is there any cutting or modification that has to be made to install this?

 

Hi,

There is no cutting and no modification of the stock parts required to install the TWM Short Shifter. The installation manual should be online in about a week, we'll post the link when it's ready.

Thanks,

Bump!

We finished the installation of the final production version of the short shifter on our test car today, I must say this is an amazing improvement over the stock unit, the shifts are short, precise, absolutely no vague 5th gear and the reverse lock mechanism is very smooth with no annoying clicking or grinding noise.

Everything will be ready to ship on September 18th, the shifters are going to the finisher next week and we are currently finishing the shift knobs. The Cobalt SS/SC short shifter will feature the aluminum M1 Abrams RL with the 5 speed pattern engraved, here are some pictures of it in the car.






Still time to pre-order yours!

Have a nice weekend everyone,

Frank

Yesss! Can't wait!!!

 

How much to get "wand of power" engraved in the knob? lol

 

Hi everyone,

We can not offer custom engraving at the moment, it would be very expensive so we are working on offering every different shift patterns on the market for now.

Keep the orders coming in!

^^ Very nice instructions and How to! Cant wait for it to ship next week, Sweet Job TWM!!!

 

Perhaps a dumb question, but will this also fit the 08+ turbocharged SS's?

 

i believe its just for the SC, but I may be wrong. The website says just SC

 

It does say it's for the SC, but I'm pretty sure it's the same transmission and if they didn't change anything about the shifter or linkage, then it should work as well with the TC.

If you guys need a guinea pig...I'm sure I could help
