Adjustable to your liking
These cables are a direct replacement to original factory ones but are even better as they're adjustable (left and right cable).
This allows for one to adjust if necessary the "center" of the shifter lever when not in gear as well as to help adapt to numerous different shifter setups and preferences. We have made some adjustments to these cables so they work for both NA or turbo factory 1990-1998 MR2 transmissions and can be adjusted to suit NA and turbo cables and reversible if needed.
Adjustments can be done via rotating the rod end to lengthen or shorten, removing or installing adaptor pieces or cutting parts of the threaded section where rod end is installed.
Solid Metal Inner Core - Improves Shifter feel
These cables also improve on OEM design with a durable solid metal inner core for a more direct and improved feel/response with numerous strands of small metal twisted around the core. OEM design consists of numerous small strands of metal twisted together.
Economical
With Toyota OEM cables priced at $400-500+ for a pair, these are also great for the value.
Solid Bushings
Available with rubber bushings or spherical solid bushings for a more direct, sportier shifting response feeling with less flex and play.
- These cables do not use the same bushing retainer sizes as the OEM cables. If you decide to go spherical bushings later on, do not purchase the ones meant for the OEM cable as they will not fit these. Want spherical? Best to order it now.
Features

- Premium build and quality
- Improved shift feel and response - Actuations are driven by a solid metal inner core
- Both cables are adjustable (Exclusively only at MR2Heaven)

Fitment

Notes
- Sold as a pair of left and right
- These cables do not use the same bushing retainer sizes as the OEM cables. If you decide to go spherical bushings later on, do not purchase the ones meant for the OEM cable as they will not fit these. Want spherical? Best to order it now.
How to adjust to fit your preferred transmission
For Turbo E153 Transmission
Right side cable - Cut right side cable threaded part .5 inch off. If you need to switch applications and install for NA in the future, use supplied extension adaptor piece to bring back to original length.
Left side cable - Twist rod end fitting all the way in without the use of removable extension adaptor piece

Right side cable - Install as is
Left side cable - Install the removable extension adaptor all the way in. Install rod end all the way in.
