This new Coolerworx NSB series shifter was designed specifically for the Evo 7, Evo 8, and Evo 9 with the 5-speed gearbox.
It’s not a refreshed old model — it’s a completely new design from a clean sheet.
To make sure we build it right, we worked together with WMD-Evo (UK) — a shop known for building and upgrading Evos only. Their experience and feedback were a big part of this project.
Back in 2016, we made our first “top-mount” Evo shifter. It worked great for the time and we sold many of them, but the world changed. Back then, nobody cared about cutting plastic, removing the center console, or modifying panels. Today, most Evo owners want clean installs and OEM-level fitment. So we decided to build something very different.
______________________________________
The Story Behind It
Our first Evo shifter (Gen 4 to Gen 9) was originally made for race cars with no interior, so cutting a large hole in the factory panel didn’t matter. Owners made it work — some even swapped 6-speed console plastics because the hole was bigger and required less trimming.
But the truth is simple - nobody likes cutting their interior.
So in 2025, we went back to the beginning. We 3D-scanned the Evo 7/8/9 interior, 3D-scanned the surrounding plastics, measured every limitation, and redesigned everything from zero.
______________________________________
The Challenge
The OEM 5-speed console has a small opening for the stock shifter. Under the plastic, there is plenty of room — but the visible top hole is the limiting factor.
Our goal:
make a complete short-shifter system that fits through the factory trim without cutting.
And to do that, nothing from the old model could be reused.
So we made new:
• handle
• rocker arm
• internal mechanisms
• pivot points
• ratios
• geometry
• mounting system
Everything is different.

What Makes It Special
This is part of our NSB series — Never Seen Before.
NSB means the shifter meets three rules:
1. No cutting of interior parts
2. Direct fit under the original plastic
3. Perfectly tuned feel for that specific gearbox
And the Evo 7/8/9 version follows the rules perfectly:
• Fits the factory console without trimming
• Fully designed for the 5-speed Evo gearboxes
• All new ratios tuned specifically for this transmission (we tested a lot variations to get the right feel, not just the shortest throw)
• Clean mechanical click when you engage the gears
• Strong, simple, reliable construction
• Designed using full 3D interior scanning
Thanks to the help and real-world feedback of WMD-Evo, this version behaves the way a proper Evo shifter should — solid, precise, and confidence-inspiring.

Installation
• Everything mounts from inside the car.
• No console cutting.
• No modification to interior plastics.

Summary
This new NSB shifter is the cleanest, most precise, and easiest-to-install Evo shifter we’ve ever made.
It respects the car, respects the interior, and gives the mechanical feel that belongs in a proper Lancer Evolution.
