i saw a couple of months ago on autotrader that a guy was selling his 1.4 ibiza with a short shifter, i actually called him up and asked about it and unluckily he just said that the garage done all the work and he doesnt know anything about how its done etc ....so im just wondering if anyone has...

Evening all, Just wanted to say hello again after a short break away from Seat. Just traded my Focus ST2 in this afternoon for a brand new Leon TDi Reference sport with the full BTCC kit and 18" BBS wheels on. Looks awesome and the torque is grrrreat. Got in the focus after the test drive...

I am in the process of ordering a kit to collect when I am in Canada (early may) Can anyone tell me which EIP short shift kit they have gone for? The kit (EO307002) comes up as a Front to back and Side to Side combo kit. ($169) Is this the correct choice? Or should I get just the Front to...

I've just finished fitting my short shifter and what a difference it makes. Gear changes are more solid and precise also it isn't at all knotchy, like my previous short shift on my punto. I bought it off Ebay ages ago for £20, it is an exact copy of the B&M shifter. The only thing that it...

The title says it all guys!! I done this to my 6 speed lc I tried to explain a little on the picture but it didn't work very well. As you look down at the linkage from the front of the car you will see how the left linkage arm from the gear stick is fixed. you need to disconect this just...

Westec used to have a guide for aligning the gear shift for the 6-speed box after fitting the EIP short shifter. Anyone got a link or copy of the article? Westec site doesn't exist anymore and the posts on here about it also contain dead links. Google didn't throw much up either. Oh...

Anyone got one? What one do you have? I'd like one but i'm not that keen on the B+M as it replaces the gear knob and costs a fortune. Does anyone have a different O2J counterweight shifter thing as well?

After getting my turbo fitted at VAG Tech I was talking to the guys about short shifters and a few other bits for the car, basically I managed to persuade them to let me to take the car out how she was then take her out with a short shifter fitted. Well what can I say but WOW! Its by far the...

I am interested in getting a JBS short shifter fitted to my leon fr tdi. Is it worth it and what would be the benifits? Thanks

Hi folks, Just got myself a Connects2 Aux adaptor tonight, and unless I want to run it attached to the end of the changer cable in the boot (which I don't!) I'm going to need a shorter CD changer cable. I assume that's correct.. what has everyone else done... and where is the best place to...

Is there a short shifter you can get to fix to the gearbox like there is for the leon/cupra R?

Ok, so I understand a short shifter changes the actual linkages to the gearbox, but it doesn't affect the actual gear stick, does it? I drove a BMW 320CD with the M Sport pack the other day, and was suprised at how short the actual gear stick was... So the ideal set-up work be a...
