The Return of the COBB Double-Adjustable Short Shifter for Gen1 MAZDASPEED3
It’s back! COBB Tuning is proud to announce the return of the beautiful COBB Double-Adjustable Short Shifter for the Gen1 MAZDASPEED3! This revolutionary Double-Adjustable Shifter brings back unrivaled adjust-ability of one of the most critical links from driver to car, with independent adjustments for the height of the shift knob as well as the length of the shifter throw.
CAD designed, machined from 6061 billet aluminum, and anodized a vibrant COBB blue, the Gen1 MAZDASPEED3 Double-Adjustable shifter offers independently adjustable shift-knob height and shifter throw length while retaining the full reverse-lockout functionality of the OEM shifter. This gives the driver a fully-customizeable shifter set-up with the ease of being able to adjust shift-knob height and shifter throw while the shifter is installed in the vehicle. Make quick, iterative changes until the perfect height and throw are achieved for your particular driving style.
The knob height is adjusted by loosening the two flush-mounted stainless steel socket-head screws in the upper billet body, sliding the upper shaft to the desired height, and retightening the hardware. This design allows easy adjustment of shift knob height, while being strong enough to stand up to rowing through the gears with extreme enthusiasm.
The shifter throw is adjusted by unbolting and moving the forward pivot ball into one of five pre-tapped positions. The top most position will provide a 30% reduction in lever throw, while the lower positions bring the shifter throw progressively closer to the stock shifter throw length.
The Gen1 MAZDASPEED3 Double-Adjustable Short Shifter is compatible with the factory shift knob as well as any aftermarket knobs that are modeled after the stock unit. Combine this innovative shfter with the COBB Knob and the MAZDASPEED Shifter Weight for the ultimate in MAZDASPEED3 shifter feel and adjustability!

will this shifter work on my 2013 mazda 3 skyactiv?
Matt, we actually haven’t had the chance to confirm fitment of our hard parts on the new Skyactiv Mazdas. If I had to guess I would say they likely are not compatible. – Marshall@COBB
Will this fit a 2011 ms3
It will not. The Second Gen Mazdaspeed3 has a shifter assembly that is completely different than the Gen1 cars. Sorry for the bad news!
Marshall@COBB
Will these fit RHD mazda 3 MPS (Gen1)?
Peter, unfortunately we are not able to confirm fitment on a RHD Mazda though I imagine it likely does.

I just bought a cork sport shifter plate and bushing set installed great product. Have the throw already reduced by 40% but was wondering if I bought this product would I get more throw ajustment or are these product unable to work together?
Hey Mike, we’ve never actually tested to see if that shift plate would work well in conjunction with our old short shifter. The parts should all bolt up without issue but I’m not sure how much more adjustment you’d be able to get out of the combination.
Marshall@COBB
do you have any left or where can i get one ?
Hi Jacinto,
As it turns out, we no longer have any stock of these shifters. I’m not aware of anyone else that might have any since they’ve been discontinued for a long time. Sorry for the bad news.

Hi, I was wondering if it was somehow possible to still get one of these. I really like cobb products and it seems that this has a better build quality than what some other brands are offering.
Hey William! Sorry to say, but these were phased out a while back.
