About APR
APR develops performance hardware and software for Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche, and related platforms. Its application-specific components are engineered around verified vehicle, engine, transmission, and emissions requirements rather than model name alone.
Related Parts
- No related store product is linked because supporting components must be verified for the exact vehicle, engine, transmission, and current APR configuration.
FAQ
What is the MS100103?It is short shifter for the exact application and restrictions shown above.
Which transmission is required?The vehicle must use the compatible 6-speed manual 02Q or 0FB transmission and linkage.
Can front-to-back travel be adjusted?Yes. A slotted track on the shifter lever controls forward and rearward travel.
Can side-to-side travel be adjusted?Yes. A separate slotted adjustment on the relay lever controls side-to-side movement.
What do the counterweights change?The three stackable weights let the installer alter the effort and feel of the shift action.
Why is a stainless spline insert used?APR uses the interlocking insert to resist wear at the transmission input spline.
Is the complete relay lever included?Yes. The complete system includes both the shift lever and relay lever assemblies.
Will it fit an automatic or a different manual transmission?No. Compatibility requires the listed 6MT 02Q or 0FB application.
Installation Instructions
- Confirm the vehicle, transmission code, linkage, and APR MS100103 part label before removing the factory shifter components.
- Review APR's current short-shifter instructions and secure the vehicle with the engine off and transmission in the specified service position.
- Remove the factory shift and relay levers without damaging the cables, cable ends, or transmission spline.
- Install the billet lever assemblies, friction pieces, clips, locking hardware, bolts, pegs, and selected counterweights exactly as shown by APR.
- Set front-to-back and side-to-side travel conservatively, then verify every gear and reverse engage fully with the engine off.
- Tighten all hardware to APR's current values, confirm cable clearance, then road-test at low speed and readjust only after the linkage operates cleanly.
