Customer Reviews
I have been looking for a mx5 na gated shifter for my Ferrari 250 GTO Tribute conversion and when I saw the news of the Minottek gated shifter I had to get it !!! It was delivered to UK in less than a week and was very well packaged. The fitting instructions were very clear and simple and it took me 2-3 hours to fit and it went in very well wiith no adjustments needed.
It looks and works great and really helps recreate the look and feel of the replica. Shifting gears is very smooth and “sticky”! And there are no rattles or noise of the gear lever in the gate due to great design and tolerances. I am totally stoked and well pleased with the gated shifter.. This a great bit of kit for any mx5 na . Thank you Minottek!
I have not installed the kit on my car just yet, but the quality of the shifter, gate, boot and trip piece is phenomenal! I cannot wait to get this installed!
Easy as shit to install for anyone willing to read just a lil.
I'm really impressed with the quality of this kit. I have not seen another like this. Don't miss out on this as only a few times ever do we ever see something this good and more personal than a mass produced big company part. This was made with alot of heart and care. Thank you!
Never used a gated shifter but I took the word of those who have and it truly is a one of a kind experience. Ryan put a lot of effort into this project and it shows. The material, installation instructions and product itself are top notch.

”Pistol” Pete’s Mud-yata
Pete’s former SCCA autocross car turned bad weather lifted daily driver has been well loved for the better part of 15 years. This attention-grabbing NA Miata on 27in mud tires proved to be instrumental during testing and helped secure a rattle-proof design both on and off road.

Griffin’s Drift-Prepped NA8
Griffin’s InstagramEach part of the kit was conceptualized, prototyped, and test fit on Griffin’s NA. During the prototype phase, Griffin kindly put the Gated Shifter kit through some light drift testing to ensure the shifter would hold up under the subsequent driveline torture of a prepped drift/street car.
