It'll only baulk if you rush the change, the clutch speed of action doesn't change though.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all wanted to share - as above really - I have been toying with the idea of this upgrade for ages, but never got round to it. Having done it - what can I say! Should have done it ages ago! Recommended for all others out there! JJ

POST 2Original post

Definitely something worth considering, I had a B&M Short Shift on my 4S, it improved the throw quite considerably! I've got it for sale, if anyone's interested http://911uk.com/viewtopic.php?p=413115

POST 3Original post

well ive got it on my 996tt. great when day to day driving. really pants on track . it bloody baulks all the time. to explain : will go in , but you have to feal for it.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Interesting - So far I have not really felt any issues, though 2nd can be a bit of a pain. I am at the ring in Oct, so that will be a good test for it, though it feels much more positive to me. JJ

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I must admit, that was my thoughts as well, Damian, unless there is an underlying fault. It is conceivable that the short shift would exaggerate any issues. JJ

POST 7Original post

JJ you have the factory short shift ? Thats what i have and i must say i dont rate it at all. Its actually not that short... a mile away from the shift length of a manthey or B&M shifter.... it can be hard to shift quickly into 3rd, and generally is nothing like as "rifle bolt" as the standard or short shift on the 986S for instance. Has quite a bit of play in it also.... opc have refitted new cables but not felt any difference.... Its a worthwhile improvement in shift length on the standard 6tt shift tho but i'm toying with binning it for either the 997 shifter or a manthey one from jzm (tho extremely expensive at £600 fitted)

POST 8Original post

mines a techart item. possible other fault - but drives fine under normal conditions. you do have to give some effort to the stick on every change.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys Mine is a factory fit and I must say that mine feels fine. I dont think I would want it any shorter than it is now, and it feels to be the same as the same short shifter that I played with on a 997 turbo (that was at the dealership) Could be rose tinted specs of course, but I will confirm if time produces a different result. Selecting all the gears seems fine at the mo, with the exception of second, but that is user rather than box - just got to get used to it. JJ
