Short Shift Kit

[DubSteve]

What about the dieselgeek one it looks pretty good I was reading it today I think we go with that its about the same price as the tmtuning one!

Yeah I read good reviews about it too - one of the best actually?

No doubt the dieselgeek one is better than the RSD, but they are not comparable in price - $109 vs $225 (I was charged $20 delivery from Germany). You do get the side-to-side bit with the dieselgeek one though. I got the RSD one but am not completely happy yet, maybe just needs adjusting..... Shifting is smooth albeit a tad notchier, but thats kinda good, but I often have trouble down shifting 3rd to 2nd. For the extra AUD$150, from what Ive heard, I reckon the Dieselgeek one is the wiser choice.

Do dieselgeek make shift kits for 8v cars? I was under the impression that it was only for VR6's...

With regards to the RSD stuff, I am very shortly going to get the RSD 8v SS kit in from TMTuning (hand made German jobbies) with a set of the vents that go in the foglight blank for my CAI setup, and I'll land both items here for under $200 Australian including shipping, so for my money, that seems like good value...

Cheers!

Im up for one and I reckon for this it's worth going for the very best one regardless of price. It wont be like hundreds more. You guys agree?
Tims one sounds good.

And rayray cars looking good mate nice new pic in sig.

Well from what I read about the dieselgeek one its got 35% reduction front and back and 50% side to side, not sure about the tmtuning one. I only read that one.

Oh crap, another item to the li$t

My RSD one from TMT is good. Just need to be methodical when putting it in. I had no reverse at first.

You do not need to drop the box!!!!!!!!!

For those that are DIY keen and/or want to save money, here's the short shifter DIY for the VR6 (not just cutting the stick, actually modifying the shifter mechanisms):

I didn't take the time to go through it all, but it does look promising.
