Short/Quick shift options.

[W4rdy1]

I've read many threads on the different short shift options for the VTR.
Which one do people generally use/recommend?
They all seem to look like they work completely differently!
What is easiest to fit, most reliable and cheapest etc.
Many thanks

Based purely on performance I much preferred the B&M over the Compbrake setup (think thats the name of it).

The Satchshift I have never used, looks like the more pricey option but I hear excellent things about it.

for an everyday road car something like the Baker BM quickshift (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tuning/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-transmission/quickshift-kits/baker-bm-quickshift-citroen-saxo.html) or OBP internal quickshift (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tuning/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-transmission/quickshift-kits/citroen-saxo-obp-motorsport-quickshift.html) is probably the best as they are fit and forget, and cheap.

Ok thanks for the advice!
Any idea why they all look so different?

[KamRacing]

probably legal reasons lol

Dont mean to hijack the thread, but are either of those suitable for a phase 2 vtr?

[VeiRoN]

Yes they are.

Excuse the noob question I've literally only started learning about modding cars the last few days. What's a quickshift do, and where do you exactly fit it? hahaha

Shorter throw on the gearstick, those are used where the gear linkage fits the gearbox.

Google the image/name snd you'll see

in a way Quickshift is the wrong word.

Shortshift is better...

It simply shortens the movement of the gearlever.

in a sax/106 i use a combination of 3 elements for a stock MA gearbox:

I just cut a slice in the plastic ball on the standard shifter and slid it up a little bit then re secured it... not sure if that's a bad idea or not, but it works a treat. Still asy to put into gear, but the throw is a lot shorter.

The last picture is the one I fitted cos I had a lot of play in linkages and couldn't be bothered changing them lol but hey it works a treat
