[Mk2] [Generic] Show us your shortshifters

[LiamTye]

i have one of the kits of ebay and i found it simple enough to fit

was straight forward enough

i done a few searchs on the forums and made sure i knew what i was doing first

here is a link for the one i have and i have a trd ball gear knob,only difference is mine come with some cheap ar$e gear knob

its very low but i like it

thanks. Im guessing these are just a copy of what you get with the TRD ones but at a cheaper price??

[fearless]

like the sound of that £30 as opposed to £100 for the trd one going to get the uprated bushes aswell job done, anyone know where i can get the bushes cheap

now you bu88ered me didnt know there was 2 lots, just heard of people changing bushes and gear change is more precise, oh well this could be expensive then might aswell do it all together though no point taking apart twice

lol.. well Im just going to do the Short shifter for now and if it feels bad change the other bits. Im spending too much money lately on little bits (£10 here and £20 there doesnt seem much but it soon adds up )

[Steve-O 2007]

That's the kit.

Is that blue plate the bit that makes the actual shift shorter??

Yes, top one for where the cables meet the gearbox.

Bottom one for where the shift stick is.

[LiamTye]

you can get the bushes from jamie at jap spec performance for 6 quid

he sorted me out with mine where as other places were charging a hell of alot more for the same thing

[fearless]

i know what your saying i paid out for a big one yesterday £325 for a clutch so nice to drive now though, pedal is very smooth not stiff like before took them 7 hours though found out on here though its a big job to do and a pain in the ar$e, well chuffed though just thought if i got the short shift kit and new bushes it would compliment my new clutch like you said £10 here £10 there all mounts up. what really scares me on here is when you put your mods and money spent on your profile i must be up to over a £1000 by now only had car for 7 months such a large amount in a short time for me

Thats why Im not filling that bit in LOL (well I might if I get time)

[Steve-O 2007]

Is the blue plate bit just used as a Spacer?? If so is it not just possible to just use some washers with the same thickness??

[LiamTye]

finally got a picture of mine up,well guys and gals here it is

[Steve-O 2007]

Ordered one from ebay via seller 800bhp. Should have it for the weekend hopefully .

Just need a new knob now because mines warn out (The threads in it have stripped )

[fearless]

could not resist it i bought a shifter kit from 800bhp and a bearings kit from two's r us going to get ear ache from ear indoors now, nevermind might only have the hump for a few hours but bang goes my early nite things we sacrifice for our car's

[Steve-O 2007]

Received mine form 800bhp this morning!!!!!!!!!! Excellent Service (1 day it took)!!!

Havent got the bearing kit, might order one on a later date, want to fit it tomorrow

[fearless]

thats good service im off next thursday/friday i only ordered the cheap set of bearings to start get the others at a later date, im a sucker have to keep off this site it cost's me to much money keep saying ooohh that looks nice and after a few min's go and buy it on ebay

[Steve-O 2007]

it realy is short!! from top to bottom the shifter only measures 14.5cm then theres the 0.6mm spacer taking more length off it!!

How long is a Stock shifter?

[fearless]

blimey that does sound short is it well made cant wait to get mine now what are two's r us like for delivering bits, knowing my luck i will get the shifter but have to wait for the bearings dont want to take apart twice, also what are fitting instructions like are thay pics or just described what to do i printed off the fitting guide off here i so prefer pics though

[Steve-O 2007]

Fitting guide seems easy to follow and has pics. Planning on doing mine in in the next 30 mins, will let you know how I get on
