marc_p Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 After Homers review on them, I stay well away from any short shifters on a 6-Speed, if you do a quick search you should be able to find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just it seems to be that it slowly damages the box over a prolonged period of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlliRR Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I've not had the car long mate, but the previous owner had it 7 years and the shifter was fitted shortly after he got it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 We run a B&M short shifter on Steve Lintons Time Attack Supra and its never had a gearbox problem, and thats about 6 years of track abuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Sounds hit and miss then, personally I'd stay away as I don't want any problems, plus, theres nothing really wrong with stock TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Do they still make the "C's Short Shifter"? Reviews on them were pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Do they still make the "C's Short Shifter"? Reviews on them were pretty good. I was actually just about to add about them, the C's ones actually come out brilliant in the reviews, you can still pick them up new from MVP: http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/Templates/frmTemplateM7.asp?SubFolderID=210&SearchYN=N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 The stock gear lever has a short throw, heard of loads of short shifters that have broken over the years, not something I would bother with personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
