How does the new gear shifter feel? (i had the DieselGeek shifter before but hated it...so notch).

And how do you like the Haldex upgrade? Have you had a chance to test it out yet?

not had chance to test either of them yet mate. literally headed off to work after installing both. first impressions of the shifter are good though. i have a dieselgeek on the a3 and not that keen myself for a daily driver. hoping the forge is just one step back from that, i'll let you know…

i'll will see how i like the quick shift but might try the bushings at a later date if you rate them...

damn you lucas, i've just decided i'm going to order both bushing kits. making me spend more cash…

how were they to install, do you really have to remove the battery?

[Auditude]

How do you find the torque arm insert? Does it feel firm enough?
I've got a SPM solid mount + insert (in my s-tronic A3) and it still feels like there's too much movement at low rpm. Not vibration, but actual movement. I have a feeling one of the other mounts is gone though.

Haha sorry about that. I only ordered the Verdict bushes a few days ago, so cant comment on install yet as they are on a plane somewhere over the Pacific ocean. Im pretty sure ill be able to install them without removing the battery though. They get good feedback on improving shift feel from customers.

The 42DD bushes arent hard - but you need to remove the stock rubber bushes (cut them out with a stanley knife) and then fit the 42DD units.

you two fellas are a couple of sick puppies. that little rat is testing my patience at the moment, if it doesn't chill out its going in the crab pot. last time i packed to go away i went back upstairs to find this. guilty; i'll let you decide…

[guile]

what the general opinion on lamina-x. fanny magnet or law attracter…

[robbie]

It's amazing how you have covered pretty much every aspect of the car in such a short period of time Richard. Well done mate. I think the puppy is marking it's territory

Wait, so the dog unpacked all your clothes? Pretty clever if you ask me!

Oh and I say not a good idea to the laminex. Looks tough as but it's just asking for you to get pulled over IMO

I have 6% (gunsmoke) lamin-x on my headlights and they don't draw any negative attention. Touch wood...
The darker shades might though.
