UPDATE!
Only a small one; I fitted my GE Quickshifter. Literally the easiest mod I've ever done to the car took me 20mins!
For anyone wondering how to do it;
1. Its best to get at the linkage from behind the battery; you can pull it directly up and off the gearbox spigot far easlier than going in next to the vac pump.
2. Pop the linkage off, get hold of some solvent-based degreasant and a couple of old rags and clean the spigot up. If it's oily its far more likely to slip!
3. Put quickshifter over the spigot and wedge as low as possible
4. Tighten the pinch-bolt to buggery!!
5. Apply liberal amount of loctite to area around spigot where quickshift is pinched.
Wait to dry then enjoy!
Its a bloody great mod tbh; took a little getting used to but now its just great; I couldnt go back to a normal throw now!
Makes me wonder why they gave the box such a long throw to start with!
Anyway, simple mod, great results!
