I'll try one on mine tomorrow :)

Pete,
What do ya want one of these for if you're selling up ?!?! ;)
Or have I just stumbled across a clue to the next car ?!? ;)
Icecavern
25-02-2004, 13:40
Enquiring for a friend ;)
That's what they all say !!
"I'll got a friend who's got this problem...." :D
And does it help the throw? Does it make it more positive?
awesomeade
18-03-2004, 11:18
yes, shortens it by around 50%
LEO LION R
18-03-2004, 11:51
from your link " The Neuspeed short shift kit for the Audi TT Quattro & Golf R32 easily installs on the selector shaft of the transmission located right below your factory airbox and battery. No need to touch any of the parts in your center console! The billet steel shift kit reduces the throw from gear to gear by approximately 35% "
are there two kinds then, a Billet one ( 35%) & a Nuespeed one (50%) ?
I'm confused :confused:
:cheers:
Icecavern
18-03-2004, 12:26
The newspeed shift is made from billet steel I think... I think it's just 35%

P.S. any reserves in case someone changes their mind, or in case another 5 person discount is made avaiable ?

I thought Z might want one too ?
:thumbup:
Really tempted.
Any technical difference between this one and the Diesel Geek one? The Neuspeed one looks weighted.
Does anyone know if it reduces the throw/travel in both axes, i.e. accross the gates as well as through them?
LEO LION R
23-03-2004, 09:04
Good question, i had presumed that it did, it may only be in the forwards/backwards direction. :confused:
Is anyon eable to confirm this ?

LEO LION R

Anyone else want one, its a great price and will sort out the long range of the 6 speed box.
Right guys and gals, the deal is give awesomeade a call on 0161 776 2222 (between 9am-4pm) and place your order, remember to mention your SCN name and he can tick you off the list. He can take your payment over the phone (easiest) or online and ignore the price online as he will correct it if you identify yourself from on here.
If you have any queries about this deal, either PM me or PM/call awesomeade.
As always you can expect a quick delivery from Awesome, so you can even have it fitted by the weekend :D

Right it looks an absolute doddle to remove and refit, all except for one little chap.
It appears there is a non standard fitting on one of the two parts to be released, how is this part in the photo released ?

Excellent, thanks. Was a bit worried it was another 'dealer only' item special tool to remove it.
Will the rod attached to it / gearstick be under any sort of tension, ie. will there be any pressure on the part being removed that has to be held onto while swapping parts over ?
Thanks in advance.

Didn't take pictures, didn't remove any thing!..
Just undid the bolt, pulled of the clip with my fingers and gave it a gentle clip with a hammer. just came straight off!.. Easy.
Push on the new one, lining up the nick, and repace the bolt and clip. Such an easy thing.
And I still cant get over the difference!

Snazzin frazzin razzin fecker, i got the clips off no probs, didn't even remove the airbox or anything else, the problem came when i had the clips off and nut off, but the damn cam wouldn't lift of because of the centre splin slot.
So the old one stays on tonight, untill i take some brave pills to get the hammer in use.
So tomorrow it is then, going to go and watch celtic get tanned by barcelona 3-1

I just found this thread - missed out on the GB then? I assume this fits the Cupra 6-speed too then?

There is a nick on the spindle, so it only goes on correctly!...
There was quite a bit of grease already on the parts it sides through.

Cool, problem was getting the old one off the spindle last night. Will try again tonight though, get the big hammer out this time ;) :D
Robdon, yeah its finished aparently, unless you can find some more peeps to get another one set up ? (not sure if it fits the 6 speed cupra box, i would have thought it would as its only the ratios that are slightly different as are the R32 from LCR)

LEO LION R
27-03-2004, 17:50
I am pretty sure the ratios are slightly different, but it should make no difference to the fitting of it, yes imho it should be like this to start with. Nice and short / tight between all gears, and in fact because the throw is so much shorter the side movement is shorter too.
win win situation.
:cheers:
Cool - I'll get one then, although I've missed the GB price haven't I?

Apart from the removal of existing which i wasn't brave enough to hit the first time it is a doddle, the end clips are a little tricky in case you drop them into the engine compartment.
Allow for 10 minutes to do it properly, ie clean out old grease with metal particles in the slide mechanism to the right in that pic, and re grrease.
Good luck and enjoy.

I wouldn't be so hasty, comparing the befor eand after pics with that TT one, it looks like it might do the job, albeit the weighted end is on the opposite side, but there is nothing in the engine bay there to block its movement, so it really just comes down to the angles and lengths - which look very very similar. Youd really need confirmation from them that it fits or at least try it and return it.
Damn could have maybe saved £120, then again even if it fits it might not feel right or be badly balanced ?
:cheers:
LEO LION R
30-03-2004, 08:02
In fact having looked at the site again, there is every possibility that it fits no probs - it just doesnt shorten the throw by as much. Only 20% as opposed to 35% from the Neuspeed one.
Still not bad for the money though, depends how much shorter you want it.

Well in response to earlier post about modding the original.................
I removed the original and the only issue about the modification would be the removal of the original 'cable post'. It looks like some form of compressed fitting.
There is ample space on the original casting to move the post in and probably further than the Neuspeed item but then the change would be unusably short.
I am taking my motor over to my Uncles engineering firm tomorrow to get his views(He specialises with Rolls Royce turbines Hmmm BIG TURBO on a trailer and flexy turbo pipes :D :D )
My early opinion would be to engineer a new post and drill tap the oem casting.
I suspect he would knock me out as many as I wanted free gratis for those on here wanting /capable of drill/tapping.
I also had a close look at the (side to side)bracket which is made out of pressed steel. There isn't the space on the part to move the post closer to the box and therefore reduce side to side movement unless a short piece of plate is rivetted/welded on and the post mounted on this. There is plenty of room to do it.
I shall report back closer to the weekend
Look what marriage and children have reduced me to doing
LEO LION R
30-03-2004, 20:15
Like i said before, good luck.
Don't fancy yer chances boring out the cast metal and it still being strong enough when the gear linkage pulls or pushes hard on it.
:cheers:
Hi Ade, picked mine up Sat and got the bushes for dog bone! Also Jim did me the APR trial all I can say is wow, then I killed it by disconnectin battery after only 3 hrs of play!!! Damn stereo!!!!! I WILL BE BACK!!!!!
if its closer then technically there will actually be less stress on the bar but more on the change itself
be a good challenge :p eh scott ? :p
wouldnt mind a pic or 2 if you get some - see how it works out

Technically there will be the same stress on the bar because its still the same length, the distance to the centre pivot has shortened and therefore the same force being applied will result in more stress on the new joint as its having to deal with the same force over a mush shorter movement. :thumbup:

Well once the couriers answered the phone so I could go get it, very happy now... Took me a bit longer than you guys cause I'm not mechanical and I couldn't get the standard one off :redface:
It's got to be a 50% reduction. It also seems to reduce forward throw more than backwards but I think that's just cause I'm not used to it yet.
Very nice though :D
LEO LION R
04-04-2004, 07:15
Yeah i had problems the first time i tried to remove the existing one, just got to do what is said above.
I'm also still getting used to it, although it does feel more natural now just over a week on, and getting better ever trip.
Slotting 4th gear back is the shortest i think, so maybe it's ever so slightly different from one car to the other, as you think forwards is shorter ?
:cheers:
The Neuspeed shortshift does indeed fit the Cupra as well as the R, what a difference - feels very short and sporty!

It does yes! Final figures are 255BHP and 269lbft of torque - I'm happy! :thumbup:

Yeah i'm happy too, although could be happier - no v-tune to play with yesterday :( , maybe next trip in a few weeks.
Mine has 205bhp @ wheels as well (256bhp) and 276lbft @ 4300rpm (over 255lbft from 3000-5500rpm). Peaking at 1.25bar on the rollers and 1.385bar on the road, which surprised me at just how much more it was on the road.
ECU Explorer what a wonderful tool and getting even more advanced soon too.

doesn't really matter, with new wastegate :thumbup:
The Neuspeed shortshift does indeed fit the Cupra as well as the R, what a difference - feels very short and sporty!
Which one, this one?

Does anybody know if a simular short shift excists for the ibiza 1.8T :confused: .
I'm looking for this for quite a while but still haven't found one :(
02j change IIRC, which can also be used on 02a, you'll have to check B&M or Neuspeed catalogues to see if they do one for those.
Edit: this is listed for 99+ Cupra BM-E45114

Yes,indeed.But are you sure that one fits to a ibiza because that one is for a golf IV. I've already compared the original partnumbers of the one in a golf IV 1.8T and the one in the ibiza 1.8T and they are both different :confused:
Thx
It was listed for Ibiza, any more info then you'll have to get in touch direct i suppose.

Answered like a true politician leo :bleh: ;) lol
yeah was reading up on these on the audi boys site while 1 am this morning,general consensus is that they work really well,with a slight increase in vibriation through the wheel + bulkhead,this settles after one/two days of pasty,then just a tad @ idle etc,good mod for the money,as they say gear changes improve also,and a few also have the shortshift and say the combination is a revelation :idea: :thumbup:

50% shorter roughly and the sportier in car rumble from the DBM bushes is great, however i would disagree that they settle after a few days, mine is just the same. Maybe the ones that settle need tightening upo again - especially if they fitted it themselves without the use of a vice to press the parts in properly ?
