Cheers,

Graham

I have alrady ordered a short shift from UK for my ibiza...
I will let you know as soon as I fit it...

I'm going to bully my sister into getting a short shifter cos I've just fitted one on my Scooby and it's well worth the money!

I am sure that it is really worth the money...
At least that is the case in vortex...

Any info on this matter? Do you have 5- or 6-speed? Audi TT-gearshifter shortens shifting on 6-speed Seat Leons(mk1), would that same part fit 6-speed Ibiza?
Mine is a 130hp Tdi 6-speed -03.

I have to admit I am not overly impressed with the EIP short shift. It makes the gears fell a bit notchy even after ajustment

We fitted the short shift I'd ordered on an ibiza 1.4!
Soon we will have the chance to measure the shift time for a magazine, however we are already amazed by its work...
I think it worths...

so, where do we get it from???????????????????????

Audi TT-gearshifter shortens shifting on 6-speed Seat Leons(mk1).

Really??? I'd not heard that. Is it just the metal piece that attaches to the gear box (like the EIP one)? Any idea on the part number?

(sorry to hijack the thread)

Cheers for that, but thats fitting the EIP one I think. So is the TT one a different part to the Leon one, I thought that they were identical?

The part number for TT shifter is 8N0 711 051 B and is supposed to be the same in Leon Curpa R. Compared to stock it's supposed to shorten about 15-20mm on the gearshift travel. (I haven't tried, but this was read on finnish seat forum, now I'm trying to find out what to put on my car.. I had a gemamotorsport one on my ex-car astra and I liked it) .
