short shift kits

[Scirocco-Al" <scirocco-Al@insight.rr.com (Scirocco-Al)]

It depends on the kit.  Some are only one piece.  I've never used one of
these but I've been told that they only reduce the throws for 1, 3, 5th and
probably reverse.  This could be bull as I've never driven a car with one to
be able to tell you.  The more exspensive kits are 3 pieces and reduce the
shift pattern in all directions.  I can vouch for this as I have one.  Other
than the one piece vs three piece option the finish on them is really the
only difference.  Some are painted, cadmium plated or powder coated.  If I
were you I'd just buy the cheapest 3 piece kit you could find.

quick question

I'm looking online at short shift kits and notice that there are definately
different prices on them. Specifically, 200 bucks for a Nospeed one vs.
about
70 for a Techtonics short shift. Does anybody have any experience with both
of
these and could tell me if a 200 dollar short shift linkage is that much
different from a 70 dollar one?


Thanks
