[Ideo]

I am impressed you put it in yourself so quickly

That's what she said.

Just thought i might post my thoughts opinions etc regarding the QS kit now that it has been around 3 weeks...in one word...Awesome! It is fantastic especially when you need to down shift quickly and all that is required is a flick of the wrist! (Restrain yourself Silvrfoxx!) lol

Well worth the entry price and bruised thumb! Anyone here with a manual should do themselves a favour as it is money well spent!!

Now if you got a DSG you wouldn't have this problem..

does the DSG come with bra and panties, or did you pay extra for those? LOL

(just kidding!!)

+1 Had one on my MKV GTI, when it came time to sell it, the person who took it for the test drive fell in love with the gear action. Sold the car! haha

DSG is for wimps and old people with arthritis in there left leg!!

Could be some truth to that, I started listening to AM radio in the car for the first time ever recently....

Anyone in VIC with one of these?
I really want a short shifter in my 6sp man S3 but want to test one out first.

I imagine that it came directly from dieselgeek
VW TDI timing belts, aluminum VW skid plates, VW short shift kits, VW G60 clutch, and Race Pipes by www.dieselgeek.com

058oys,

MrBob is correct. I bought it from DieselGeek US.

Cheers!

See you have described me to a T.. but it is still faster than an MT.. so how does it feel to have your a$$ handed to you by a cripple

Come race my manual R, see how you go.


YES I want this shifter. I need to order a new lower dash now! my ring has stuffed it up good like.

Hahahaha...take it easy on him, after all the DSG is to compensate for the diminishing reaction times that comes with age...

Thats the main reason i installed one. I have to say though it is lot of fun with it installed. I too wear my ring on the left but swap it to the right so i don't scratch the gearknob to bits!

I think I will just get a divorce, then I can get rid of the ring and other related costs.

Late model MKV shift bushings suit the MK6 GTI.

Good news for you MK6 people, here is a very long video I found that confirms the late model MKV shift bushings suit the MK6 GTI in the least, they obviously carried over the shifting mechanisms, thus MKV shortshifts and the like should also fit. As my MKV TDI has those same ends / mechanisms, I'd assume the GTD and quite probably all MK6 Golfs would also suit.
