Performance Shifter Cables

Numeric Racing's performance shifter cables for the 986/987/987.2 Boxster and Cayman, built to fix the well-known failure point of the factory cables. A wider-diameter cable, aluminum rod ends and stainless steel mounting connectors eliminate the excess movement that eventually snaps the OEM units, sharpening gear engagement in the process. Installation is a do-it-yourself job under an hour with no modification required, and the set ships with 5 one-time-use yellow inner caps and Numeric Racing's limited lifetime warranty; a bulkhead wrench is recommended but sold separately. For owners who'd rather not get their hands dirty, Rennen Motorsport or an authorised dealer can fit it instead.
Frequently asked
Which cars does the Performance Shifter Cables fit?
Fits your 987.2 Boxster. Fabspeed lists this piece for: 986/987/987.2 Boxster/Cayman models and 3.8-engine-swapped vehicles (1997-2012). Exact fitment for your year, trim and options is confirmed on your free consult before anything is ordered.
What does the price include?
The delivered price includes the part from Fabspeed USA, freight to Australia, import costs and GST. Enter your postcode to refine delivery; the final figure is confirmed on consult.
How long until it arrives?
Every Fabspeed part is made in-house at Fabspeed USA with about a one-week production lead time, then allow another 3-4 days for delivery to Australia via UPS. That freight is already included in the price.
Why replace the factory shifter cables before they fail?
OEM Boxster/Cayman shifter cables are known to break eventually; Numeric Racing's wider-diameter cable and stainless mounting connectors are built to eliminate the excess movement that causes it.
How long does installation take?
About an hour, as a do-it-yourself job with no modification needed. Numeric Racing also provides a written guide and installation video. It can also be fitted through Rennen Motorsport or an authorised dealer near you.
Will I notice any extra noise after installing them?
Some owners hear a slight increase in vibration noise from the metal cable ends; Numeric's Shifter Cable Insulation is available separately if that bothers you.
Which option should I choose?
Pick the option that matches your gearbox rather than your model year: 986/987 5 Speed Manual and 986 Boxster S 6 Speed cover the early manual cars, 987 6 Speed covers the later six-speed Cayman/Boxster, and 3.8 Conversion is for cars that have had a 3.8L engine swap. If you're not sure which transmission your car has, check your build sheet or ask before ordering.
Who installs it?
Rennen Motorsport in Adelaide, or an authorised dealer near you. Fitting it yourself may also be an option depending on the part, so raise it on your consult; professional installation is quoted separately.
Is it covered by warranty?
Fabspeed products carry the manufacturer's warranty, supported locally through Rennen Plus as the Australian principal. See our returns policy.
Can I just buy this outright, or do I need to talk to someone first?
Every enquiry, whether it's one part or a full build, starts with a free consult. We confirm the exact spec for your car before anything is quoted or ordered.
