Anyone got the above? Is it worth the £300 I was quoted by the dealer to buy and fit.
I know it's only a shorter thrown to change gear, but does it give much improvement on acceleration, cos if it's a shorter throw you've got the power off for less time when changing gear. Does it make much difference, or is it just about the feel?

 

I was quoted the same for MY97 Turbo model. Thought £300.00 was a bit steep but one of my mates had one fitted and said it was good enough.

I went for the B&M version from TSL. Came recommended from Paul and cost a third of the Prodrive version. Fitted it myself and must admit it is better than the original.

 

cool cheers for the tip on price!

So bottom line... is it worth it?

 

If you go for the B&M shifter then yes... third the cost and shorter throw!

I drove my car (B&M) and the a P1 with the STi/Prodive short throw. I jokingly said his gear change was like a lorry, felt a bit guilty when he walked into TSL and order the B&M on the spot!
