Looking to treat myself to a quickshift, any recommendations as to which one to go for on a MY02??

I've just fitted a JWR quickshift on my MY01. Cost me £117.50, is made from solid aluminium and i love it!

Having the Prodrive quickshift fitted tomorrow, don't know what it's like yet so can't recommend it as such, will let you know what it's like when I've had a drive.

It's more expensive than most £180 plus VAT I think, rather than shop around why the dealer had the car thought I might as well just get them to fit it.

Might be worth contacting Rally Design (www.raldes.co.uk) they are advertising quickshifts for pre 96 Impreza's @ £41 +vat and post 96's @ £38.50 + vat which is about the lowest price I've seen. don't know if they do one to fit MY01/02 though.

...Can somebody tell me the principle of having a Quickshift gear operation. Is it similar to what you see on rallycars where you either move the stick forwards and backwards.

How do you put it into reverse for example?

I am completely in the dark here but am wondering whether its worth buying one if they are only about £40 or £50.

Would having a multilock mean I could still get one fitted?

Thanx

the quick shift shortens the throw between gear changes by about 20%
changing gear is exactly the same only quicker

Doesn't MY99+ cars (old shape at least) have a quickshift throw?

Does a quickshift reduce that throw by another x% or wont you see much difference?

Just had me B&M quickshift fitted this morning & it is rude the amount of less travel needed 2 change gear on my MY97 turbo 2000 so defo no quick thing b4 but as the guy said who fitted it it is very extreme Quality it's such a more sporty feel now just popping it between gears with the mearest of twitches
Aint cheap & sum chaps have said just make 1 yerself for £5 but i like quality so i'd rather fork out da wedge

You cant go wrong with the sti quickshift from subaru.

Changed my MY99 STI (Quickshift Linkage as Std) for one from BRD, throw is much more reduced and more precise, I believe the 'Classic' shape throw was about 10% less throw than UK and the BRD is about another 15-20% less than the Sti one!

BL,

Get the B&M one from TSL, it makes a much bigger difference in the MY'01+ WRX than the STi one does (MY'01 WRX has a slightly shorter throw than the MY'00 as standard, and Subaru sell the same part no. for both model years - thus has less effect on the new shape cars).

Also its a lot cheaper, as someone said above, the STi ain't cheap.

PS. I'll have the details of what you txt'd me about later today.

I fitted a JWR quick shift a few weeks back, great quality and loads of room for adjustment. Took me a few days driving to find the best setting, I had it adjusted too much at one point, the movement was so small I found it hard to find nuetral .

Buy one!

You have tried my B&M quick shift... you know which one you should go for!

Much shorter throw, easy to have fitted and it loosened up within a couple of days.

Call Trouser you know you want to!
