short shift kit for AE111

Postby Tagged » Sun Dec 19, 2010 11:04 pm

Does any1 know where I can find a set of short shift for my AE111?
I tried looking over the internet but got nothing....


Btw, does any1 have any idea what happened to my last post about "why are manuals more fuel efficient than autos?" It just disappeared ??!! Or was it removed for any reason? I didn't any notice about it at all.....:(

The four seasons in Australia consist of "$&#$% it's hot", "Can you believe how $&#$% hot it is?", "I won't be in today because it is too $&#$% hot" and "Yes, the dinner plate size spiders come inside to escape from the heat."

LOLOLOL i have to say i had the same idea when short shift came to my head for the 1st time. I thought I will just remove the gear knob and hold the shifter at a lower point when shifting.......but it didn't work very well haha~

You should always have both tools handy, so cost isn't involved. But less sparks in the interior is better :wink:

I have a spare shifter in the garage maybe I should chop it down till its nearly impossible to change gears :lol:

Shorter shifter does not equal short shift
