Anyone fitted it yet?

Any comparision between the standard shift and the uprated one?

Cheers, Alex

Yep got one :) very happy with it, the shift seems a lot more direct and slightly quicker (no sh*t) what helps as well is a change of nob ;) I had the prodrive chrome effect which was quite good which I then changed for the Sti titanium one which is smaller and imho has a better feel (apart from frosty mornings in which case it gives you frostbite).

Some people have had the quickshift and not reported any difference but i'd reccomend it :)

Sammyh - you got all the mods on yours then! ;)

:cool: thanks for the info. Where can you get the STi (eh hem) knob from, is it a Subaru UK supplied thing or third party UK vendor?

Cheers, Alex

Nearly mate just a few to go ;)

The nob comes from Subaru and the part no is ST350224S000 £114.95 (including VAT)

You can see it on the Subaru website :)

Got my eye on you Alex - Dr no mods :rolleyes: more like Dr know your mods ;) LOL

You coming to the next meet?

Sammy - thanks, I'll take a look as the brochure I have at home doesn't have it in it. Let me know when you've max'd out on mod's - I expect a good write up on all of them! ;)

Neno - I know, MATTeL was taking the pish out of me at the weekend, saying much the same... honest, I won't mod it! :D

i have the quickshift on my stiv7 and not only is the travel ie distance between gears a lot less but also the lateral movement know seems to be negligable when in gear there seems to be little left to right play in the stick now.

Have also changed the Knob (nob)??? aswell

I did have a mental arguement with myself over the spelling of nob or knob and settled on nob for amusement purposes only :)

hawkeye 30 October 2003 04:00 PM

LOL

i too thought that saying in pubic id changed my nob would not benefit me greatly

Wonder how many ways this could be taken out of context Sammy! :D
