Is it possible to make a standard gear stick have a shorter throw?

I know you can buy them cheap but I've extended and reshaped my gearstick because of where my seat is.

Thanks 😄

They just raise the ball and socket to alter the lever rate. You could do the same if you're brave enough to cut n shut your selector casting with some ally section, or buy one and extend the bottom of your personalised stick
