Gears - quickshift, short shift etc....

[m88sdm 0]

Hi,

 

I have tried to search for what i;m looking for but had no luck, lots of very old posts.

 

I have a lovely new corrado and the gears all seem very wide apart the length between 1st and 2nd is huge. Now i know i've been driving a car thta has very tight grearing as tsnadard but even so it's like driving a old landy!

 

In your expert opinions what is the best way to imporve this???

 

And what is the best performance vs money???

 

Many Thanks Steve

if you can weld, then cutting and shutting a gearlever relay plate to change the pivot point is a very cheap way to reduce throw, a passat plate is probably a better starting point than a Corrado one and then you can always swap back if you have any issues. A 25-30% reduction is about what you'll get, In any case more of a reduction than that and the change will become very notchy.

Neuspeed short shifter is the way to go. I've had one fitted for about 4/5years and it's always worked perfectly.
