I wouldn't bother with the shifter - they're a mega pain in the arse. Just get the linkages and good engine mounts

Haha when you say pain in the ass is that to set up or is it to do with them slipping? Iv read cpuple of times people saying they slip. I assume the gear stick drops down the turret?
If someone has a second hand one there happy to sell cheap then il have a play haha

Yeah and they don't feel great. If you can figure out the best place and weld then it works, but the hassle is more than it's worth

Oh right, alot of mixed feelings on these then haha. Im only looking for one as someone i was talking to at a trackday with his 6. Said he thought it was great having the shorter gear throw. Yeh i though about getting it all in the right place and then one or two strong tack welds, which is something i can easily do myself. But i definatly want the solid gear linkages. And about thousand other parts needed haha
