Don't know about b+m but fitted a prodrive item in place of a jap innovations. Prodrive feels better but jap inov is shorter.

I had a sit in a new age yesterday with one.
all I can say is IT'S SHORT !

the stick is only about 2-3" high .. and the travel is almost non existant!
but it feels really nice & gear selection seems spot on!

the car was Mattel's .. if you can find him for a more indepth report!

cheers

The B&M quickshift is indeed extremely short shifting!

Nobody that has sat in the car yet has not commented on how short it is!

The gear **** does sit a bit lower than it has to as I had it set as low as possible.

Afer a week the shift was very smooth, before that it was a bit stiff as the started to do its lubricant did it's job.

If you are looking for the simplest way to change you car to quick shifting without replacing the complete linkage then I would recommend this one.
