Compbrake-style Quickshifters - Ed Doe - 23-01-2012
Hi all,
Thanks largely to PompeyMark, I took a snipe at one of these quick-shifters on ebay and got it for £25 + £3.99 p&p.
After a bit of a faff (royal fail lost it!) it's now sat on my desk. It's literally identical to the compbrake one. Looks properly sexual
Anyway, I mentioned about our merry little band of puggers, and suggested that I may be able to get him some good business through group buyers etc.
His website is currently under construction, but said if we get a group buy of 10, he can do them at £25 each as a 1-off. I can organise this all if you guys are interested. They will probably be delivered in bulk to my address; I can bring them to tunnel runs/meets, or if you're really bloody patient to FCS 2012! I'd need to check on postage, but it's likely to be less than what I paid spread over an order of 10�
This thread is just to get an idea of interest, but I need people to be fairly certain before bunging their names downâ?¦

Link to the compbrake offering: http://www.compbrake.co.uk/Parts-by-Car-Manufacturer/Peugeot/206/PEUGEOT-206/306-QUICK-SHIFT/prod_390.html
He said he can offer us 20% discount once his website is online too on all products with an 'AMT' part number, and I believe he also does eccentric top-mounts (which I will be enquiring about very shortly!!!).
I believe this offer has a bit of a timelimit on it, due to him starting his website up again, so I think we need to have an idea of interest/commitment pretty shortly!
Let me know boys & girlies

So identical its the same damn photo!
Re: Compbrake-style Quickshifters - Jacko - 23-01-2012
Is he planning on doing gear linkages aswell? As mine are shot and held together with steel wire atm Lol
Re: Compbrake-style Quickshifters - Ed Doe - 23-01-2012
lol I know Mark; I clocked that. I was gonna ask him if he had anything to do with compbrake. I will next time I email him.
I'll take photos of mine when I get home and bung them up to verify the build quality. They look excellent though....
Jacko, I have no idea, I can ask the question though. Miles gear linkages are the best ones to go for iirc though; they go for about £50 a set on egay... I've heard that because they don't have any rubber in the cups they tend to rattle unless the gear stick is held all the time, which apparently can drive one insane quite quickly. Worth a quick browse on the '6 forum to see the ads/disads of them before you buy imo...
I will enquire for you later though
Re: Compbrake-style Quickshifters - Foxy-jim - 23-01-2012

How easy are these to install - as in can I (a monkey) install it? and are they generic for all 306 models?

Centre console out, get under the car and undo the gear stick (1 bolt), undo the 4 bolts around the gear stick, take out, put new one in, put bolts back. Simples.
Even you can do it

new sig! good man!
Re: Compbrake-style Quickshifters - Ed Doe - 23-01-2012
Bloody hell! I leave it a couple of hours and there's 8 on the list already! Excellent. Now cajole relatives/friends/people who dont even have a 306; I need 2 more takers!
As niall said, pretty easy to do, but the exhaust heat shields can be a bit of a fiddle. Apart from that its pisheasy to install.
Re: Compbrake-style Quickshifters - Pompey306mark - 23-01-2012
Guys get these. They are amazing well done ed on getting a group buy together. I did suggest it in the other thread with Matt getting the other ones. But these are much better.

I will mate but you will need a jack and axle stands. If your willing to bring them then I'm happy to help mate!

right, it seems were easily going to get 10 (looks like we already have!) so I'm going to leave this open until Friday.
I'm pretty sure I'll be able to confirm p&p costs tomorrow based upon 10 then I'll put my paypal email address up. If you guys can all paypal me soon as poss I'll be able to place th order.
Please make paypal payments as gifts; And give me a contact number and when you intend to collect; I'll sort it all out arm let you know when I recieve etc!

1. NiallHarper
2. Dum-Dum
3. jonny.b
4. td_dan
5. connor
6. Jacko

(don't know why the ginger one started the list at 2? Maybe that's how gingers's start an ascending count...
)On a serious note I already have one, so this is 10 people for a batch.
FoxyJim, We'll all muck in and bring tools etc to help you (and a few others i spose inevitably!!) fit these for a few beer tokens/couple of tinnies
If you're in put your name down!
