im tempted by the B & M

bullit · 15th February 2007, 20:44

mark the picture you posted is not a b&m one its a taz style quickshift

saxo_vtr1234 · 15th February 2007, 20:45

whats the diffrence bullit ?

bullit · 15th February 2007, 20:57

the b&m replaces stick as you can see in one pic. the taz one replaces the surround at the bottom as in marks pic. the taz is about half the price but you will have probs with centre console if you want to keep it. you can make something to hold the console down or let your wires flap as in pic.

saxo_vtr1234 · 15th February 2007, 21:07

what so to have a sort shift you have to lose the centre consol ?

well the gator area

Ryan^p · 15th February 2007, 21:08

as people said, if not set up correctly, or used with rose jointed linkages can cause early wear on synchromeshes on gears.

i want the taz one as opposed to the b&M

bullit · 15th February 2007, 21:11

with the taz stlye yeah, although ive seen someone that cable tied the console down. the b&m one you wont need to do this

ryan do gmc still do the taz style? i got one of the last batches that tam was selling a while ago

Ryan^p · 15th February 2007, 21:12

rolf cable ties!

sounds like gabbastard!! cable ties and rear suspension!

saxo_vtr1234 · 15th February 2007, 21:13

so the one that is up for the group buy would not remove the gator permatley

Ryan^p · 15th February 2007, 21:15

group buy is b&m woulndt require so many mods! would retain std center console as has been stated.

saxo_vtr1234 · 15th February 2007, 21:16

but it would still be a good idea to sort the rose jointed linkages out ?

bullit · 15th February 2007, 21:18

saw the pic the other week with cable tie, lol. you could prob sort something out but the taz needs to be on view for looks aswell

Ryan^p · 15th February 2007, 21:20

i remeber reading on RR about the group buy ages ago. think the taz shifts are either in no supply or are very minimal.

i remeber the taz ones the price did increase, but personally do think its a better unit.

i bloody want one for the 'project' mankee was gonna shave my balls ready for fitting some rose jointed linkages but couldnt be arsed lol

Pricy, it only causes early wear if your shifting quickly. You can drive around daily with it and o no extra damage + you will have smoother changes & less porridge stirring

Ryan^p · 15th February 2007, 21:23

i shouldnt mention stuff on sax-p where people will think they need it for no reason DOH!

djmartin · 15th February 2007, 21:27

ahh so not buying one now pointless lol i wanna keep my gearbox lol

Ryan^p · 15th February 2007, 21:28

as ive said on msn dude.. depends entirely on the way you drive/treat the box itself..

a fast change isnt allways the best.. in terms of longevity of the synchros if your slamming it into each gear.

smooth is the way

Mark51^p · 15th February 2007, 22:21

i have used three cable ties to hold my centre console down and it is held down better now that it was with the orginal gear stick in place

you can still have your centre console, your original gear knob and your original gear gatior with both the B&M and the TAZ styled quickshift
