Announcing the arrival of the MTI Racing by UUC Six Shooter Shifter for V6 Camaro

The stock Camaro shifter has many rubber components that numb the performance feel. MTI Racing teamed up with manufacturing giant UUC Motorwerks to engineer the V6 Camaro shifter with the best materials, shorter throw, and a better overall feel. Now you can confidently go through the gears with confidence and precision. The throw is reduced by approximately 25% and a HUGE improvement in feel. It feels like 1000% improvement.

The stock OEM shifter is made using a 4-pc shaft that is bushed with rubber, a pressed-on ball joint, and a welded-on pivot that holds a shaft bearing attached to rubber linkage bushings. The new MTI Racing Six Shooter Shifter for V6 Camaro is made of high quality stainless steel with a 1-pc ball machined directly into the lower stick, and a roller bearing at the base shift rod link. The kit also replaces the stock rubber bushings with durable delrin composite bushings, increasing the overall strength and life of the shifter assembly. Our shifter has been designed to perfectly work with the stock transmission self centering mechanism and have better then factory performance. The MTI Racing Six Shooter Shifter requires little to no extra effort when shifting, and instills confidence with its solid structural feel. Mission accomplished.

The MTI Racing Six Shooter shifter kit is not an entire shifter housing replacement. The kit includes all the components to convert the shifter assembly and its internal hardware with the highest quality components, while retaining the factory housing. Installation of the shifter requires the transmission to be lowered slightly to remove and install the shifter assembly. The new shifter is designed to use the stock shift knob or an aftermarket knob. The throw reduction is around 25%. We have tested over and over different throw reductions, and we felt that the final version provided the best overall confidence in shifting. Made in the USA.
You can find this shifter at any of your local MTI Racing parts dealers.

The transmission will have to be slightly dropped to install the shifter. Let me know if you need someone to install it for you, I may have a dealer in your area.

Check it out guys, we need a V6 Camaro to make famous. We need someone local or not so local who can leave their Car with us for a free install of the Six Shooter Shifter. We will be filming the install for our website and various forums for all the other Camaro owners to check out.

Note: The shifter is not free, the installation of the shifter is free $225 value.

IndyDave · 02-05-2010, 12:17 PM

Is this a "short-throw" like the Hurst?

I'm not near you, but I'd be interested if you have a dealer near me. Can the stock nob be retained? And is it a true short throw?

This shifter shortens the throw by 25% which we have found in testing is the ideal percentage for an everyday driver. The shorter the throw the harder the shifter can be to get into and out of gear, especially when you are in stop an go traffic and we have found the 25% to be ideal. You do not want to be working out when you drive you want to be enjoying the ride. The shifter is set up to use either the stock knob or we have a white or black threaded queball knob.

Thanks for volunteering Mike. As long as you can leave the car with us for a whole day we would be happy to have you.

UUC makes nice stuff, albeit BMW mostly. Looks almost identical to their bmw line of shifters.
