Prodrive quick shift..?
I have a chance of buying one at the right price () for my 05 wrx.
Are they any good, can someone who's had one fitted comment as to whether it's worth it or not..?
Finally, is the PD one any better than the cusco/perrin (short shaft) type..?
Are there any GB270's left in the dealers, might have to try one out as above is fitted as standard..

Cheers Butty,
did you fit the full PD version or just the B&D type and did it make change notchy in any way..?
I've seen a new, full PD type (actually branded STI) for just over £100 from Japan..

I've also got the Prodrive quickshift. I like it, although I felt it didn't make a huge difference to the length of throw.
Picked mine up cheap on here, so quite happy. At the right price I would say go for it.
I didn't attempt to fit it myself.

I am looking at getting one of these fitted but am now a bit concerned by motos' comment that it didn't greatly reduce the throw ...are there better kits out there? The PD is quite alot of cash for what doesn't sound like a huge improvment in performance, or does it improve other aspect of the gear change other than throw length?

i have the Subaru quick shift on my car. Not sure what you mean by the Prodrive one? But anyway, it does make a difference to the throw but obviously the gearbox is not a quickshift one and so realistically it does not alter the change speed, but it does feel better.
I would have one again.

I'm not convined for the money... magicreg - do you find the standard STi one lacking?
I have to admit, I came to my 06 STi from a 350z and the throw on that was a lot shorter. I was going to change the STi for a while for this reason, but am used to it now and can change quickly enough tbh. I occassionally have problems finding third when giving it some but that may very well be down to driver skill or lack thereof
Undecided personally

For the difference the Prodrive kit makes opposed to the cost then I csn't see me buying one, was/still am half tempted at the B&M kit from Revolution.
