My apologies also. Should have really placed the post in the Trackdays & Meets section.

I did not have a shortshift on my old S4, but have one on my current S4. The other half prefers the one with the shortshift.

Where are you ordering yours from?

I was looking on ebay - it seems the popularity of short-shifters has also shifted the price up a notch to 3rd gear!!! (No puns intended - honest :wink: )

MarkB - I have just fitted Rs4 brakes and a shortshift to mine so i can help you on that one. Brakes are very easy and short shift isnt too bad. Down pipes a nightmare!!!! need a ramp really. plus the bolts have a tendency of snapping off in the turbos so best left to a specialist IMHO of course :D

No probs.

I guess the best way to do this is if everyone who's defo up for a cuppa at Woodys gives me a quick PM please. That way we'll know for sure who's up for it.

Satan, will you be rising from the depths to visit? If so, I've got a rough count of 10 (inc me :) )
