4eyes2wheels 0 Posted March 17, 2012 Picked mine up from the Royal Mail depot today (I missed the delivery last week). Not too sure when I'll get the time to attempt fitment - perhaps over Easter? Extremely well packed, looks good and detailed instructions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryanmac 10 Posted March 19, 2012 Hi Dave I had been looking into doing a mk4 shifter mod but can't find anything about but found this thread instead....would this be a better mod? what has actually been done to reduce the throw within the system?

daves16v 1 Posted March 20, 2012 Hi Dave I had been looking into doing a mk4 shifter mod but can't find anything about but found this thread instead....would this be a better mod? what has actually been done to reduce the throw within the system? Cheers Ryan Ryan, I've no knowledge of the Mk4 shifter mod so I can't comment. The pivot position has been shifted higher up. Thanks Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swiftkid 1 Posted March 23, 2012 I have the exact same question ryanmac, I have the mk4 shifter but wondering if this would be just as good. Anyone with a mk4 golf/had a mk4 golf and the shifter mod in the corrado have any feedback of comparison? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon green 5 Posted April 2, 2012 Now the rush has gone, could I have one ? Awaiting your pm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt59876 0 Posted April 8, 2012 Hi Dave, I'm interested in one. My current shifter is shortened by simply being cut off below the threaded section to reduce the throw, would you still want this in return for one of your kits as it modified? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VEEDUBBED 0 Posted April 8, 2012 What's the difference between Dave's shortshift version and the utterly shiyte 100 euro version i bought off eBay.de? Worst mod i've ever done on my car and bloody pricy aswell, utter garbage. I'll be posting you down a spare gearshifter soon mate, can i use PayPal?

nrc 0 Posted April 9, 2012 Sounds like you have a problem with the mech. You have to push down against a spring to get reverse, is the spring present or broken? Could be a problem on the end of the stick. Pull the gear surround up and examine the spring near the top of the stick also check that all bolts are tight and clips are present. Turned out it was just the plastic tab on the bottom of the shifter had fallen off. I'll send you a PM soon to get one of these kits ordered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon green 5 Posted April 12, 2012 Fitted mine today, WOW what a difference,after 165k mine was getting rather sloppy,Dave's kit has not only took the sloppiness out,it's given me a lot shorter throw ! If anybody is undecided on getting one of these,take it from me,well worth the money,and like anything Dave makes,exceptional quality ! My old one will be in the post tomorrow, Thanks for a good piece of kit, Bryan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
