Forge short shifter owners

(1/2) > >>

Trekmeister:
Installed a forge short shifter for MK5 Golf GT 140, works great but have a question to anybody who also has one. Is the shift back and forth equal in length? The reason I ask is the throw backwards (gears 2, 4 and 6) seems much shorter than the forward throw. Is there a possibility I have the shifter splines lined up incorrectly and need some readjustment or is it supposed to be like that?

lee_:
Mine seems equal fore and aft. Will check in morning to be sure.  :happy2:

Andy:
Been thinking of doing this to mine but still can't make my mind up

lee_:
A very worthy mod, always found the shift in mine sloppy (coming from honda S2000) and kept missing gears
when pressing on. A second hand short shift sorted it out straight away.  :happy2:

snapey:
Mine seemed fine when I fitted one to my old waggon. Take it you did lock the stick in the neutral position?
