forge side to side short shift

[pete8tch]

as the title suggests , fitted 1 of these today from awesome, (thanks andy).
seems fine , not startling but more feel and better matched to the car.

5 mins to fit , bloody hours if you drop the circlip

I dont know how i ever put up without a shortshifter...makes such a big difference.

think im in a minority running an EIP one

Any pics mate? Link to item? Wouldn't mind modding mine to b honest to that. Always wanted a short shifter

I've got the front to back short shifter, is it worth getting this one too?

 

[UncleFester]

I don't know - someone customed my OEM ones and i like it - takes a bit of getting used to but it's a much nicer throw when done.

i have both forge ones. makes a huge difference. the front - back one more so.

How much would it set you back to get both sets then? This is one mod i'm definitely interested in, and wouldn't mind doing the installation myself too...

 

[kez]

~£125 give or take.

i installed mine myself - it's easy. just don't drop the circlip

Remeber these guys are talking about the one form forge (6spd) Cupra/R version, I've heard of people having problems trying to find 5spd ones!

I have the JBS front-back one & it's ace - didn't know you could get a side to side one !

I've just recieved a front to back one today, gotta wait till my birthday though before i can fit it, but i can't wait not long now.

 

[dmmsta]

I've got the Front->Back one fitted, and the difference is amazing, even on the longest setting...

I've read that the side->side shifter isn't really worth the money, as the reduction in throw is not as noticable, but then I've not tried one, so can't comment directly.

Might have to find someone local that has one, and "have a feel" so to speak...oh err misses.

both JBS and forge do a gate reducing piece as well as throw
personal preference but i wouldnt bother

 

[The MoffMeister]

[Funkyfin2000]

Awaiting getting it fitted!!!
